Don't buy those crappy UK/European dvds. Find a region free DVD player/find the unlock code and purchase the dvds from these sites. ALL 22 Episodes in full.

How would you find a region free DVD player? Are they farely common? Are they more expensive then regular DVD players? Also my only DVD player is my PS2, will that work (doubt it, I'm not that lucky)?
Thanks,

You need to be careful. The region code of a DVD is not the only thing you need to condsider.
The Australian MKC dvds are either Region 3 or 4, and yes - a region free dvd player can play them. However, those MKC dvds are also in the PAL format. Here in the U.S., most TVs cannot support PAL, and require the dvds to be NTSC. Thus, even if your dvd player will play the dvds, your TV may not display the picture if it is unable to handle PAL material.
In other words, make sure your TV will display DVDs that are in the PAL format. Otherwise, a region free dvd player will be useless to you.

Most region free players will convert PAL to NTSC. How good of a job it will do depends on the player.
shareif your dvd player isnt region free and you cant hack it, dont worry, as long as you have two DVD drives for your computer, OR want to rip a copy first.
Set one DVD drive to region 4, and one to region 1. Or your preferred 1 of 5 region settings if you don't want to bother with hacks.
There is a small program called ANYDVD that will eliminate region settings.
You can also use that to copy the DVD's with whatever program and copy them as a region free DVD.
There is 100's of ways around region codes.
