    Check it out on Wiki....

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blu-ray_Disc#Region_codes

    There are regions, but about 2/3 of early discs produced were region free.

    On the contrary, also taken from wiki.....

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HD_DVD

    There is no Region Coding in the existing HD DVD specification, which means that titles from any country can be played in players in any other country.

    That's what I thought too.

    PS3 games are region free, the movies are not.

    all depends on how you look at it
    yes, production is winding down
    but you can get a great player for $150 and movies for $10-$20
    the player will also serve as a nifty upconverting player for awhile

    thrifty geeks are diggin' it

    Not quite adept at long term investments are they.
