Default What languages/subs are supported on your BR disks?

Ok,

Here is a question for people buying BR disks in America...

What languages are on your disks? I know Korea and Japan are in the same region is America. I'm an American living in Korea, and am thinking of buying some BR disks from the USA for resale on local auction sites. Actually, I don't even care to make a profit-- just a dollar or two for the trouble -- we just don't have much available here, and I'd like to "help the cause" by making more disks available. I did get Casino Royale, for example, and the box is a Korean box.

What languages (subtitles) are on your US-sold disks?

Thanks.

Adding population quickly and roughly, I found that if you include the following subtitles, you more or less cover this % of the population in increasing order, on the following countries/regions:

Subtitle % total coverage

United States of America = 304 million

English 82%
add Spanish 97.5%
add French 98.2%
add Chinese 98.7%
add Portuguese 99%.

Region 1 = 337 million

English 83%
add Spanish 96.5 %
add French 98,5%
add Chinese 99%
add Portuguese. 99.3%

North America = 446 million

English 62%
add Spanish 97 %
add French 99.2%
add Chinese 99.65%
add Portuguese 99.9%

America (all continents) = 900 million

English 31.5%
add Spanish 76%
add Portuguese 96.5%
add French 98.7%
add Chinese 99%

Region A = 1325 million

English 31.5%
add Spanish 62.3%
add Portuguese 76.7%
add Japanese 86.4%
add Thai 91.3%
add Korean 95%
add Chinese 97.8%
add French 99.3%
add Malasyan 99.9%
