Dannii Minogue "Greatest Hits & Beyond"

Okay, so I am waiting for my CD/DVD to come. I went back and looked at Amazon. They finally have a pic of the release and a note about the DVD: it's PAL format!

Does this mean there won't be a domestic release with a NTSC (non-European) DVD? Or am I gonna be getting a DVD I can't play?

As a fanatical Kylie fan, I have to say that Dannii also rocks!

I'd kind of like to know the deal with the DVD before I buy this (if I do...it looks really good). Does anyone know?

i've only read about a UK release of this. Canadian & Japanese versions are NTSC as well, if there's a release of it in either country. i believe Brazil is as also. if not, you could look around for a cheap dvd player that is multi-regional (but make sure it says multi-regional and includes PAL). there are some that cost under 40. or take it to a video conversion shop.

good luck

I'll buy it when it's in the bargain bins no doubt by the end of the year. I preferred her previous Singles Collection. All you need after that is the brilliant Neon Nights.

I haven't heard the other 4 of the 5 new songs though so maybe they're worth it. I was just pissed that Woolies didn't have the DVD edition in stock today and HMV were too expensive.

So the Canadain verison would probably work, wouldn't it? Also would probably be cheaper...

Same as me. nod

I'd like to get it but I'm not desperate for it. I'll wait til it's on sale. nod

Neon Lights is a fantastic album. worship I think it's better than Kylie's 'Body Language'. nod

i saw that the Canadain version is also PAL but it's not region encoded so it should play fine on a computer

i've heard experts say that NTSC is better quality because the rate of transfer is faster.

The orgins i think of the differnt countries using differnt formats was to prevent bootlegging of the releases that were european only vs american only. Americans, Asians, and some of Austrilia uses NTSC. in the world market they should just make everything the same.

PAL has more lines on the screen and is therefore a clearer picture. That's the reason why all European TVs can easily play NTSC videos and DVDs but it's hrder for you guys to convert the other way.

I think I'd wet myself if Jason had come on. There were rumours that he was going to surprise everyone at the Showgirl tour on the London dates because he was here at the time, so I was bracing myself for it neutral

Yeah, I remember that rumour. I wish they would team up just one more time but I don't think it'll ever happen. Would be great, though! thumbs up!

I couldn't get tickets for the Showgirl tour. bawl
