region free
Im a bit confused.
On amazon a blue ray movie will be tagged as region 1,but on moveytime the very same movie will be tagged as region free.
I like the price on amazon for sure but as a region2 is what I got who can I trust as being correct??
cheers

Re: region free
If Movietyme say it is region free you be pretty mcuh sure it will be.
Remember to add postage to Amazon, sometimes once added the difference in cost is not that great.
Which disc is it?

Movietyme test all blu-rays if they say its region free then it is. Also if in doubt try http://bluray.liesinc.net/

I think Amazon always tag everything like this.
Remember 'Region 1' doesn't even exist in Blu-ray Disc Land - it's Region A.

Re: region free
Do some BR discs have the 'extra features' on SD-DVD? As these may well be region coded, although the BR isn't IYSWIM..

Re: region free
Play also list their HD items by the region it comes from even though HD DVD is region free, as are some Blu-rays. Like has already been said though, Blu-ray region codes are denoted by a letter and not numbers like DVD.

Re: region free
Agree, go with Movietyme's appraisal.

Nothing if you are willing to wait or £1 for a faster delivery.

Re: region free
Absolutely outstanding guys.
down here in New Zealand we are paying $50.00 for new releases and I just get soooo frustrated cruuuzing around amazon looking at the prices and wishing they were r/f.
I have now ordered There will be blood BR, brotherhood of war S/DvD. and the blade runner 5disk set B/D.
thanks again .
at the mo Im watching a movie a night trying to catch a few mentioned and recommended on this site.
If I waste my life away Im blaming you lot.
