If this has been addressed before, I apologize for this duplicate
posting.

I've got a Sony region 1 DVD player. Recently I purchased a DVD
Tampopo--upon receiving, I discovered that the
DVD is region 2/NTSC--figured that it won't work on my player, but
decided to try it anyway.

Much to my delight, my region 1 DVD player plays this region 2/NTSC
movie just fine.

I bought the DVD player new from Best Buy several years ago, and I have
never tried to override the region setting on the machine (wouldn't
have a clue as to where to begin anyway)

I'm can't figure out why this region 2 disc would work in my DVD
player. I don't believe the disc is a pirated copy.

Any ideas?

Regards--r3
