How do I buy a DVD for my mom in Switzerland
I live in the USA, and I want to buy a DVD for my mom in Switzerland. I want to buy the HBO series on John Adams. If I order it here, it will not work on her DVD, because it has to be a DVD made for the region where the DVD player is bought. (CDs work, but DVD will not work.) Does anyone have any suggestions for me?

It might work on her DVD player. Many DVD players over here are region free.

Or you can buy it here http://www.amazon.co.uk/John-Adams-C...1240374&sr=1-1 for about $50 (incl. shipping)

How would I know if my mom's DVD is region free?
