The required "wiggling" is easier when converting between NTSC and PAL-M than
when converting between either of those 525-line standards and a 625-line
standard like PAL-N. In the former, all you have to do is demod-remod the
color, while in the latter you also have to change the timebase.
In any case, multi-standard TVs and VCRs (NTSC/PAL-M/PAL-N) are pretty much the
norm in S. America, and they're not expensive.
