b. from my experience, even including int'l postage, amazon.com is far cheaper than amazon.co.uk even excluding shipping.
c. wrong. any dvd can be switched to multi region.

a, Like Michael and Dana, I don't have a credit card, I have a debit card and you can't use those in the US. Not everyone has a credit card, hell not everyone has a bank account. I appreciate you implying that I'm a backwards yokel because I don't have one though. As you can see I do have a computer, and I also have a DVD player and a driver's license. Amazing eh? All without the aid of a credit card.

b, Most CDs cost £8.99 here. I can't see how the states could be cheaper than that. Plus if the CD was released in the UK I'd also have the option of buying it from websites such as Play.com and HMV.co.uk, where the postage is absolutely free. Oh and from my local record shop too of course.
Plus like I said before I'd get it in a day or two if ordered from my own country rather than having to wait several weeks for it to arrive.

c, I'm afraid not every DVD player can be made multi-region so easily, the cheaper ones sure, but if you've got a more expensive one the likelihood is it would have to be chipped and that costs money and bother.
