question about UK BD and Japan BD - Blu-ray Forum

daisuke149 · 09-06-2007, 04:09 AM

Sorry to bring this up in a seperate thread but. Heres my situation.

My sister lives in the UK now. and being half japanese i have alot of family in japan.

I know that japanese bd's will work here in the US no problems so im going to go ahead and request a bunch from there. If anyone has a reason i shouldn't please let me know.

My major question is about the UK. Ive been reading here and there that they have a different region but some aren't region coded. Is there by anychance a list of Non-coded BD's available in the Uk that we cannot get in the US and/or are better versions than available in the US?

again any information is appreciated.

I have japanese PS3, but lived in UK. My Playstation games are near 100% Japanese (as I don't buy asian version)

I know that WB titles are mostly region free
Casino royale is region free in UK
Fox has its movies region-coded
