What's the make/model number of your DVD player? I can almost guarantee that there's a region hack for it (a series of buttons you push to unlock the regions and make it region free).
Panasonic SA-DM3?

Well, this is only if your DVD is able to read PAL...
I bought a new one to be able to read DVD-R and to my surprise, it doesn't decode PAL DVDs at all (it's a Sony)...
Any ideas which versions of Ceremony or Temptation will be used in the DVD, original, re-recordings, live performance (a la perfect kiss)?

Ahh, I love my JVC... shipped region unlocked (theres an EU levy on unlocked drives, so that added to the price, bastards); writes DVD-RAM, DVD-R, reads RAM/-R/+R; and doesn't care about what shape the MPEG2 on the disc is - scales it to PAL no matter what.

Actually just changed to a different Kraftwerk pic now but check out hundreds of pics on the Brazilian unofficial site www.kraftwerk.technopop.com.br/
if that link doesnt work you can find the site on Google
What a ripoff.
For every new neworder item we get fobbed off with six billion rehashes.
Most of the videos have already been put out THREE times (Substance, NOStory, Best of). And the documentary's been out for fucking years.
I'll save up for the next proper album. Next year? We'll see...

Well, 1st, it's no more a ripoff as old vinyls records that were reissued on CD and films previously existing being reissued on DVD.
And it's certainly far from a ripoff for all the non-eglish speaking New Order fans trhoughout the world.

well said BK.
Michael, if you are more than happy watching your deteriorating VHS tapes instead of an official, pristine DVD of the videos with far superior sound quality (none of your vids will include Crystal, 60mph, HTS, Krafty, Jetstream or the two new ones) by all means continue to do so and don't buy the DVD if you think it's a ripoff. Personally I'm very happy with the DVD tracklisting - it's what a lot of fans on this site have been wanting for ages. NewOrderStory on DVD, even if it's unchanged from the video version, is much anticiapted as well.
How can you call it a ripoff if the price hasn't been quoted, btw?

I think the mistake is releasing NewOrderStory without updating it. Fookin hell, 12 years has passed, they can't ignore them! There would be so much to update it: the split, the side projects, the reunion, Rob's death, Get Ready, the godlike genius award, WFTSC...
BTW I think this is my 1,000th post. :)
OMG!!! IM EXTATIC!!! BEST NEWS EVER!!!! I've just worn out watching my 2 dvd bootlegs (bestofneworder) & (2dvd set: pumped full of drugs & new order story)
!!! I ABSO-FUCKING-LUTELY CAN NOT WAIT!!!
this has probably been said .but as there will be a disc full of videos most of which are also on neworderstory would it not have been a good idea to replace the videos on the neworderstory disc with ,say, tv performances of those songs.totp etc. (well, Blue Monday totp is on there but no other new order tv gigs)/i.e instead of the true faith video have the true faith totp or roxy itv footage?
Thank GAWD!!! I paid over $150 for the Japanese laserdisc version of New Order: Story a few years ago. Then I had to go buy a laserdisc player...I never thought this would come out on DVD. Great news!
If there's one thing you can be sure of when you announce a tracklisting for any NO compilation here, there'll be endless complaints.
Perhaps you need to just accept the small mercy that they've finally bothered to offer us a fairly comprehensive DVD anthology. Treat the inclusion of NewOrderStory as an added bonus. Knowing how slow the cogs turn with New Order and London, getting a production team in to substantially update or supplement NewOrderStory just for this DVD is a bit of a pipe dream.
Perhaps in 5-10 years when this merry ride is all over, someone will bother to complete the story from 1993 until Hooky trudges off stage in exasperation for the very last time. Then it'll be a complete document. Until then, may as well be grateful to have the opportunity to replace your decaying VCR tapes.
:\pimp3:
I can't really add a lot more to what everyone else has said about the DVD, apart from this: it'll also benefit those fans who missed out on all the old stuff first time around, whether it's because they were too young at the time or just weren't into NO back then. For those people, it won't be a rip-off.
But of course, a lot of the old stuff is pretty much easily obtainable. All the music vids are, all of which can be dowloaded for free (although quite why anyone would want the Jetstream Video is beyond me) as is the New Order story. I'll buy the damn thing, but only cos i cant be arsed downloading.
Sometimes, I just can't believe what I'm reading here.
How, in any way, can you qualify the presence of NewOrderStory as a ripoff. It's a f***ing bonus, it's not the main feature.
I mean, how many bands would sell their vids and add a wonderful even though a bit outdated documentary.
They don't even sell NewOrderStory, it's a B-O-N-U-S!

sorry man but that's just outright funny!!
Agree with an update to the story...there's at least a decade of material they could put on it.
Looking forward to seeing a Temptation video although I hope they didn't use the crappy substance version as I'll be very dissapointed.
((((e))))
just got word from my buddy that works for Rhino in the US that the "Waiting for the Sirens' Call" video WILL be on the US version of the DVD.
(sorry if this was mentioned already)
I ´d like to see the Montreaux Jazz Festival past, present & Future special mtv europe includes in this dvd.
