Yes, there's no region-limitation on CD's, so they will work (provided the player can handle CD-R's to begin with of course) DVD's is a different story, they DO often have regional limitations and, unless you get rid of the limitations when you copy them, they could be a problem... But CD's, no problem at all, not one that has anything to do with different countries anyway...

Yes, I get Cd's and DVDs burnt by friends in States. They work in Holland.

yes there will be absolutely no problem to play the cds! like vincent said, you would only have problems with dvds as the us has a different region, and if you used an out dated cd player wich is not too probable! ;)

Hi from Germany, Europe. Burnt CDs (audio) are no problem. As soon as you can copy them with your PC without problem, they will play on any CD player in the world. The same applies to data CDs, containing, for instance, MP3s or any other kind of data (which might be converted and compressed movie data, which might have been gained illegally outwitting copy protection and regional codes). Just make sure you send it letter post without customs declarations, and never write "CD" or worse, "DVD", on the envelope. I once ordered a (legal) DVD from a shop in the US, and guess what: It took six weeks (!) for customs clearance. Also, write on your self-burnt CDs what's on them; otherwise, if there is a customs check, they'll give them to "forensic analysis", which may take months. Yes, that's all done for security. Or so they say. To exchange music, the method of choice would be sending the mp3s one by one via standard e-mail or some other, more reliable, protocol, like ftp. But I appreciate the love for your brother. Sure you printed out some nice covers, too? Should be no problem then.
