Default Canadian BRD's

i have never bought anything other than US releases and wanted to confirm something before I went ahead and order this-

North America, US and Canada, are Region 1 and should play in most Blu-Ray players, including my PS3?



The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes Blu-ray

I had been eyeing this set as I find it completely ridiculous that they release in the US these "volumes" which have 6 or 7 episodes a piece. What a rip off

Blu-ray's are regions ABC not 1-6 (DVD's), Canadian BD's will play fine on a region A BD player:

Canadian releases are usually bilingual as well. Like the one in your link. Just do a bit of homework first as some Canadian releases don't have the same quality as their US counterparts.

Canadian blu-rays are Region A discs, and they're compatible with U.S blu-ray and PS3 players.

Just so it's not a complete surprise, some CDN releases have both English AND French on cover / insert artwork. The BD you've linked may or may not be one of those releases.
