Quick question - am in India at the moment, and planning on picking up some BDs. I understand that most of the Hindi BDs will work in the UK, but are the Hollywood BDs region coded? I'm guessing these wouldn't work in the UK?

Actually, the vast majority of Hollywood blu-rays released in India are Region A/B/C and some are Region B/C. Thus, those will work fine in the UK (Region B). Blu-rays from BIG Home Video (Paramount, Universal, Warner) and Sony are pretty much all Region A/B/C and this is the case also with most Disney blu-rays too. It is with Excel (Fox, MGM and earlier Disney) blu-rays, that you have to be more careful with. But the good thing is that Excel is pretty good with clearly mentioning the Region coding on the packaging.

Not sure why you would want to buy Hollywood BDs in India. They are ridiculously priced in India. Amazon.co.uk sells Hollywood BDs at an incredible price. :-o

I've come across some reasonably priced Hollywood BDs, with some 3 for 2 deals as well - hence the question. Thanks for the info guys!
