Blue Ray only has 3 versions, versus 6 for DVD, so Japan and China are currently in the same region as the US (though England is different).
I am psyched for this, as I love my Oppo ALL region Upconverting DVD Player, and with the demise of HD DVD I am willing to wait for this, as I know Oppo will also consistently upgrade the unit through it's life cycle.
Sorry, I am wrong, it is Japan, Korea, the US and Hong Kong on the same region, and China is in a separate region. Still that means I can get pretty much all the movies I want without an all region player already.
Of course it would be nice to have more regions, and my current Oppo does PAL conversion so that would not be a bad thing either.
