Is R2 catching R1 up???

Please correct me if I`m wrong, but
1) Is the time delay between R1 and R2 releases getting shorter?
2) Isn`t the quality of R2 releases (in general) better than R1?
3) Are R1 dvds THAT much cheaper than R2 ones (on the Net)?
4) Do you get stung by Customs & Excise if you buy too many R1 dvds in one go from US?

I may seem to be a R1 hater - I`m NOT. It just seems strange that there is this BIG thing about R1 discs. I maybe wrong - please let me know.

RE: Toshiba SD100E

I`m also thinking of getting this machine from Tectronics...how did you find their service? Do you think it`s worth waiting until they develop their RCE cancelling chip?

By the way, I`ve heard that the picture on the Tosh 100 is superb - better than most other makes even twice as expensive - is this true?

Toshiba SD200E - just how good is it?

I`ve been reading rave reviews on this player, and even a reputable home electronics store told me to buy this before anything else.

Does anyone have one of these and if so, are they that good??

Picture quality...R1 or R2?

My question (since I`ve never watched a R1 dvd) is which has the better picture quality - R1 dvds or R2 dvds? If there is a difference, is it a big difference?

DIGITRON Mark 3 dvd - RCE encoding and macrovision built in...

Does anyone have a Digitron dvd out there?
I`ve been advised to buy their new Mark 3 model, which has LOADS of features. including the above two, plus the ability to record from DVD to VHS!

I`ve never heard of the make before, so if you have a model, can you please let me know what you think of it.
