Hi-Def Region Coding...
Just thought I'd share this region coding map for Blu-Ray. As you're probably aware, standard definition DVDs are locked into 6 regions. That way, a consumer in South America can't watch a movie sold in the Asian market. To make a long story short, it's all crap, and it's why I own an All-Region DVD player.
Blu-Ray discs are split into 3 regions. It's interesting that North America and Japan/Southeast Asia are the same region. Most of the non-Region 1 SD DVDs I purchase are Japanese. So that works out in my favor.
You can also see this map here.
