As far as I know, there is no region coding in the HD-DVD spec at the moment. Certainly doesn't make up for all your other qualms, but a step in the right direction.
Whenever in that type of situation, I generally bid maximum + $0.02 + the bid increment, which prevents the "current bid" from obviously being your maximum. For instance, if I make my max bid $20.52, and someone bids $20, the current bid will be $20.50, instead of $20.02 (which reveals your maximum). It's overthinking things, and often a complete waste of time to even think about, but I've won enough auctions that way to convince me it sometimes makes a difference.

I remember the moment when I decided to let my Nintendo Power subscription lapse. I had never really connected the dots until I opened to the "letter of the month", and the entire thing was:
Hopefully this hasn't been mentioned to death and I didn't notice it. Has the topic of gathering and/or selling customer information been breached?

Heh. Using google to search for something in China, that's a good one.

It must be the popularization in the mass media of conversations like:
