I'm guessing Hi Def has just caught on more in the US perhaps? Or is there another reason for this?
well, first of all I am checking if the movie is region coded or not, and all paramount and warner movies are not, catalog titles of diesny and sony are also not coded (most of them), so there are few titles (region coded)for wich I have to wait for european release....

from time to time there are very good prices on sendit.com or hmv.co.uk, or even on amazon.co.uk, check now Spiderman3 and Spiderman trilogy, it's much cheaper compare to US release, and 2 weeks earlier...

there are up to 150 movies you can order, but yes I did not counted how many of them you can buy today..

and yes, if BD will get into more homes in Europe we will see more and more titles day and date with US titles...
