Jaques,
So anyone else can legally supply a R18 DVD by post except British film-makers who can only sell to mainly the Soho shops! I smell the sickly smell of corruption here. Who benefits financially from this unjuste situation? Think about it.

Stinks doesn't it?

Not UK to UK, but Europe to UK yes, providing the content is of a standard comparable to R18.

If you are selling clips/downloads and not DVD's then that is OK - no problem there, the problem comes down to 'physical' media.
