Blu-Ray Newbie with a question about regions.
Hello all,
Over the weekend my wifey bought me my first Blu-Ray player - DMP-BDT110.
Excited I jumped onto Amazon to order a couple of films however I'm a wee bit stumped.
Buying DVDs was easy as I knew our player Region was 2 (UK). Now on Amazon UK I can only seem to find Region Free or US Import on the Blu-Rays available.
I haven't cracked or Hacked my Blu-Ray player.
What should I be buying?
Hope this helps.

Yes, it's easy to make a player multiregion for DVDs. However, making a player multizone for blu rays isn't easy & requires a hardware mod.
Excellent thank you.
B or Region Free is my choices (I can live with that).
I'll look at Blu-Ray hacks in the near future, but right now I'm off to buy Blu-Rays 
amazon.co.uk will advertise titles as 'region free' as they will ship anywhere in the world. It's to encourage people outside region B to buy from them.
If you look at http://www.blu-ray.com/ it will let you know if titles are region locked. I've imported loads of blu-rays from the US. My Citizen Kane 70th anniversary set just arrived today.

With Blu-Ray you have three regions A, B, and C
Regions for the Blu-ray Disc standard
A/1: The Americas (except Greenland), and their dependencies, East Asia (except mainland China and Mongolia), and Southeast Asia.
B/2: Africa, Middle East, Southwest Asia, Europe (except Belarus, Russia and Ukraine), Australia, New Zealand, and their dependencies.
C/3: Central Asia, East Asia (mainland China and Mongolia only), South Asia, Eastern Europe (Belarus, Russia and Ukraine only), and their dependencies.
So you're looking for B or Region Free.
One thing to note is that the player can be made multi-region quite easily. A quick google search for "Panasonic DMP-BDT110 region code" will put you on the right track.
Hope this helps.
