United Kingdom Any good UK sites for viewing back covers of Blu-rays?

Are there any good UK sites for viewing the back covers of BDs? I'd love to hear of something similar to what dvdempire.com has in the US. I realize misprints happen but most of the time the info on a back cover tells you all you need to know. Region status, audio and subtitle options, etc. That's what I'm looking for, a good UK BD reference site.

The Dvd Profiler program does have the option of seeing the front art and back art. I'm not sure if you need buy the full program or can use it with the free download.

I know when I'm making my own covers its annoying you can't get hi-res images of the back of blurays, it would make designing covers a lot easier.

We're working on that. Australian titles are unfortunately very hard to get specs for as they are rarely accurate on press releases (or not there at all) and there are few sites which either review or list details. Most retailers also list incorrect specs so they are of little use also. You'll find that the Australian database has grown significantly over the last six months or so. Every title I own has, or will have, full front and back artwork. There are other contributors doing the same to help get more representation of Australian titles.

I've actually just started doing unofficial reviews of Australian released titles which include a BDInfo scan to gather all specs, a few screenshots to help illustrate the quality and a review of all aspects of the disc. I'm also uploading front and back art to the database if it's not already included. Here's an example of the database listing (https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Outla...8/#UserReviews) and the details in the "official" thread for the title (https://forum.blu-ray.com/australia/...outlander.html).

I plan to do this for every single Australian release I own and we have a team of Australian moderators and contributors who regularly enter specs in and upload artwork. It's already seen a significant increase in our database listings and the detail in them and in the coming months you should see a further increase as more contributors begin to either update existing entries or enter titles currently missing from the database.

To my knowledge this site is the most comprehensive and detailed listing of Australian titles. It's a work in progress, but slowly the representation of Australian titles is increasing and there are almost 1,200 titles now listed.

Sounds great will look forward to seeing this section expand!
