I have been listening to Libera Christmas music all day while decorating my Christmas tree. Santa has been included as well :shock:
I think for the Christmas spirit, it is rather starting to grow on me. :D

You can play region 2 discs on an American computer or player by temporarily changing the region setting, but you can do so only 5 times.

It's at shame they do not produce their material to play anywhere in the world, not everyone would know how, or want to change the region on their CD / DVD player.

I think the DVD is region free - I bought one and on the back of the case it states the DVD is NTSC coded and for region it says "ALL" - makes sense as all of Libera's DVDs to date have been region free iirc.

That's strange that yours says "All", Yorkie. I just checked the link for the purchase. It clearly says that the DVD is Region 2, and therefore would not work in North America, at least without some fussing with settings, and I'm not technically inclined. Because I'm in Canada, it's not worth the expense and the fuss with conversion to buy the DVD.

The page does state that the DVD is region locked, but it does seem strange that they are shipping worldwide? Maybe this is an error on the website. I'm sure an email to cdjapan would clear this up http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/guide/help/con ... er_support

Question to everyone who has purchased this.

Is your all regions or is it region 2 only?

Isn't Europe region 2 also?
But if it really is all regions maybe I'll order it.

This is not an uncommon mistake - the Billy Elliot Blu-ray on Amazon UK stated it was region B but it was actually region free. It doesn't make financial sense to region lock small volume DVD's you either increase the cost of production or decrease the potential market.

Why don't you all just save yourself some headaches and buy yourself a European device to play European music on?
