The region selection is stored in my Plextor drives, and can be
changed by user 4 (or 5) times. I think that is how it normally
works.
I don't need _multi_ region but I have a solution for two regions by
using 2 drives. Both set to each own region.
(And my bundled version of Power DVD works on both.)
