Is it true that you can only change the rregion code on your dvd drive 5 times ? even if you reinstall the OS?

I ask because recently movies ive wanted to see have not been getting US releases and they release the movies years in advance over seas like the D. O. A movie.

some movies like Anime doesn't have US publishers so the only way to see them is to buy the japanese dvd.

Answers:
Yes it is true.

Thats why there is AnyDVD.

Have fun.

Unfortunately it is true!
Im the same situation with European (Reg 2) and USA movies..living in Europe and getting all my content from USA.

unfortunately its true.

Easy though: get a $20 dvd drive and then you have one for each region.
There are ways to flash your DVD drive so that it is region free but i don't recommend it. There is a way to watch any DVD, regardless of your computer's region code and that is by using a free program called VLC.
