Any idea why MST3K is R1-only? Is this a rights clearance issue, and if so why not release it R0? There is definitely an international fanbase, and not just of expats like me; if a title isn't getting an international release I don't see the point in doing the region thing.

I don't know where you are, but region-free DVD players are as common as hell in Europe and Australasia. Hell, you can buy them from supermarkets over here in NZ and I believe it's the same over in the UK as well.

Thanks for the update. The only MST 3000 title I own is a movie called Beginning of the End about giant grasshoppers that destroy Ludlow, IL, a small town about 20 miles North of where I live. It is priceless entertainment.

You may be interested to know that, of the DVDs, that's the only one which has gone out of print.
