Blu Ray players - Are any of the region free?

[sargey]

I had read that the Sony BDP-S500 was, but can't find any hard evidence of it online.

just looked at a couple of my blu-ray movies and i cant see the region code on there. So i guess they are all region free?

Most BD's are not region locked so it's rare you'll have difficulty playing them on any BD player.

This will give you an idea of which movies are/are not region free

i wouldn't quite say it was most are not region coded, quite a few are, some distributors do some don't, fox and disney for example tend to.

BEst thing is to check out axelmusic as they tend to be accurate.

These days though its sometimes cheaper to buy them in the UK and sometimes theya re also released here first, its changed alot since the 90's!
