Annoying MBP and region lockPosted 1 year, 5 months ago on September 10, 2007 by yerma Apple My macbook pro is great, very few complaints with it at all but one of the biggest ones is the firmware locking of the DVD drive meaning you are locked to a certain region after a number of attempts. I find this annoying and restrictive especially as I travel to the US quite a lot, so I googled a bit and found that other people are using IDE->USB converters(avaialble on ebay _really_ cheaply and lo and behold it actually works!!! I can rip my favourite US DVD's without worrying about when to re-install my laptop - I can even rig up a couple at a time and use handbrake and visualhub together.
