I think the main reason our DVD players will play NTSC discs is that region 2 includes Japan as well as Europe and they use NTSC in Japan. PAL-playback DVD players do seem to be getting more popular Stateside though. I have a friend in San Diego who has several players that'll convert PAL to NTSC as his family are huge Anglophiles and buy loads of British DVDs from Play.com
