hi,

lets say i wanna buy a dvd from amzaon america....amercian dvds are Region 1
i'm from australia, we of course our region is 4

my dvd player will play NTSC dvds, so my question is , will i be able to play the USA dvd?
 
That's what regions are designed to prevent. They don't want you buying American DVDs when you can buy perfectly overpriced DVDs in Region 4 - Australia.

So much for free trade.

either watch a different region on your computer or have a dvd player that is more flexible and can handle different regions.
 
You can get Multi Region DVD players for not much, even from JB Hifi or something. I think one was there for under $100 once.

There are ways to make a DVD drive multi region, but so far I've been unsuccessful, and actually screwed up my last drive with firmware to try and make it multi region.
 
there are programs which make DVD Rom drives region free....i might just do that if i end up buying some stuff from overseas....my pc is in my room anyway
