First of all - mods, please lock/remove this thread if it goes against the board rules. Im asking for companies that export blu rays over to the UK so I doubt they would be classed as competitors (well other than the obvious ones).

So Guys,

Im looking to build a healthy BD collection but have decided that the majority of titles Ill get will still be DVD and it will only be choice films that Ill get on BD (due to the expense).

But thats led me to think that I might as well go out of my way to get the best versions if it will play on my UK PS3 so the title has to be multi-region if it isnt BD Region B. By best I either mean better transfer, has more features or has different editions...

Could anyone help me with a list of companies that do import/export to the UK.

The BDs Im after right now for example are the 2 latest Batman films and I think Ive found out that there is a Limited Edition Batman Begins in the USA that has more features:

The limited-edition Blu-ray gift set includes Blu-Ray high-def exclusive content: The Dark Knight Prologue, plus Hollywood Movie Money to see The Dark Knight in theaters (a $7.50 value), 32-page exclusive Dark Knight Prologue book, 16-page comic book adaptation of the first 6 minutes of The Dark Knight, a Batman Begins lenticular, and five collectible post cards.
Unsure about The Dark Knight at the moment...

TIA

But it isnt enforced yet - not widely (look at my link above), so while it isnt, you can freely import BDs that are region-free. I agree it will change in the future, but while it isnt I cant see any reason not to get them, especially when they could be better featured/cheaper...

You need to update your sources, as they are poor if theyve led you to that decision...

Is the displayed shipping @ AxelMusic for the US or is that Worldwide? Doesnt say anything anywhere about it - £2.50 seems cheap...

Sid - I might drop you an email to confirm a price if thats ok - unsure if I can post here...
