But if I remember correct, it breached the trade act. If you can't import dvd's from another country, it's unfair competition.
Let me see if I can find a doc about it.

Nobody has ever prevented anyone from importing DVDs from other regions as far as I know. It's just that other region DVDs wouldn't play on whatever region DVD player you had. But now you can buy DVD players that play all the regions, that's why I'm wondering what is the point of maintaining all these DVD regions?
