Having just made my dvd player multi-region, which I'm very happy about, I am now ready to start on a collection of Region 1 titles and already have a long list of must-have titles, but I need help with pricing, what is the currency conversion rate from £ to $ / $ to £? the average prices are $22.49 or $18.74.

As I don't have a clue could someone please tell me the current rates or point me to a link which is constantly up-to-date?

Any help appreciated.

roughly about 1.5 US Dollars to the pound and about 2,2 Canadian dollars to the pound.

DVD boxoffice, often seem to do the best deal.

Or you could try: http://www.xe.net/ucc/ which converts just about any currency to any other currency.

Be aware tho if u use credit card the rates may not be exact same as ones you see on conversion sites or your C/Card may make an additional admin charge ontop..
I ordered a DVD which came to £13.91(I checked rates on day I was charged) but my C/card bill says £14.26... 35p may not sound like much but if you are buying loads of stuff it could mount up...
