    I heard that the region coding doesn't matter unless you play the dvd.

    If I buy DVD's in Japan, I want to rip, then transfer to DVD-R.

    (I'll have enough money for a QPS firewire drive)

    Before I leave, I will attempt to patch my Apex 660 to region 2 and then change it back to region 1

  2. well yes i think u can rip a region 2 disc with a region one becuase it only needs to unlock the drive to rip so i suggest u try it

  3. but..in order to unlock the drive, you need to play the dvd first...if the hardware is set for region 1, it may not be able to play region 2 in order to unlock it...

    however, i think the newest dvddecryptor can rip w/o having to play the dvd first (i think)
