I'm a collector of BBC nature programs narrated by David Attenborough. I have a separate, USB plug in DVD player set for Zone 2 for so that it doesn't mess with my computer's settings. My understanding is if you just stick this DVD into your computer it will play it (it will first notify you that it is of a different configuration/zone) but after doing so 3-4 times it will automatically stay (possibly permanently) configured to that Zone setting. I don't know why the BBC doesn't make these available in Zone 1 - they're missing out on a large market. I hope this input has helped.
