Products offered & information

What products are available?

We have thousands of products available through our online store. Our massive database is updated daily and includes back catalogue, new releases and forth coming titles. We work closely with our local and some international suppliers to bring you the best product ranges available.

Books
As our list of titles is most extensive, not all books are carried in stock and most have to be ordered in. Our book database is regularly updated, based on information supplied by various distributors. Our book site is based on information supplied by publishers and they can go out of stock or place a title ‘out of print’ at short notice.

If you are searching for a title that can’t be found it could be potentially unavailable on our site due to the item being out of stock at the distributors.  Elan Media Partners’s title availability is based on what is currently in stock at the distributors.  We have chosen to present our web site to you in this manor to provide the quickest and most efficient way of fulfilling your order.  In the event you can’t find the book you are after, we ask that you try your search again another day. 

If you still can’t find the book you are looking for then please feel free to contact our customer service and we will try to find the item for you.

Local CDs vs import CD's

An import title is sourced from an overseas supplier; some import titles are not available domestically at all. We have all types of music from pop, rock jazz, classical, alternative and more obscure music forms, representing past and present release that may not be readily available in Australia. On the Import department page, you will find over 200 top selling import titles to browse however, there are a further 17,000 import titles within our catalogue.

To distinguish between local and import titles, imports will have a small plane icon.

Delivery estimates are varied, however they do take a little longer than the average CD delivery. Please keep this in mind when ordering and take note of the estimated delivery time.

So if you are a collector and or a music fan sit back and enjoy the choices.

DVD regions and formats

DVD regions
All DVD's on sale at play4me.com.au are Region Four (4) format, unless otherwise stated.

There are six world Regions for DVD.

Discs manufactured in one region will usually only play on players that were manufactured in the same region, so discs bought in the Australia will not play on U.S. players and vice versa.

However, the regional coding system is entirely optional and discs without Regional Codes (Region 0) will play on any player in any country.

Please check the map below to make sure our DVDs will be able to play on your DVD machine, as some DVD players are sold as multizone units and can play DVDs from every region. Please check your DVD manual, or with the manufacturer, if in doubt.

DVD formats
All DVD's on sale at play4me.com.au are PAL format, unless otherwise stated.

There are two TV video standards, PAL (Phase Alternating Line) and NTSC (National Television System Committee). NTSC is used mainly in North America, Japan, Mexico and Canada, and PAL is used almost everywhere else in the world including Australia and NZ. NTSC has a resolution of 352 x 240, and PAL has a video resolution of 352 X 288. PAL generates 25 full frames per second with 635 lines per frame while NTSC produces 30 frames a second with 525 scan lines per frame. Due to screen interlacing (in which all the odd lines and then all the even lines of the frame are presented), the vertical scan frequencies for PAL are 50Hz (50 scans per second) and 60Hz for NTSC. This basically means that the NTSC system sacrifices video clarity to minimize flicker, while PAL accepts more flicker to gain an improvement in clarity.

A PAL signal can not be replayed on an NTSC only TV, and conversely an NTSC signal can not be replayed on a PAL only TV. However many current TV’s, DVD & Video Players are both PAL and NTSC compatible and can display both types of video. Please check your TV manual, or with the manufacturer, if in doubt.
