Blu-ray will be compatible with all countries
Sony has just decided to abolish copyright protection by region code for Blu-ray players and Blu-ray discs sold in the US and Japan.
Last Tuesday, Sony announced that all Blu-ray players and movie discs sold in the US and Japan markets this year will have the same area code.
Currently, DVDs and DVD players sold in these two countries are using two different area codes. This makes the movie disc sold in this country will not be able to run on the locomotive in the other country and vice versa.
These discs will be available on all Blu-ray players
The protection system is designed to allow manufacturers to manage the release and sale of products more easily around the world.
In theory, movies released on DVD in the United States before being released in Japan will only cause a slight impact on sales of ticketing counters in Japan, because Japanese people cannot see these plates are on the player in my home.
However, in fact, this protection system has been proven to be easily hacked, and the players capable of playing various types of discs in different regions have also appeared on market.
So far, the market has been divided into six regions with six different area codes. However, film and music producers are shaking hands with hardware makers to decide on the changes of the new Blu-ray disc, which is expected to replace DVDs with quality and Its high capacity.
Supporters of the HD DVD battle are waiting for the final decision of the Blu-ray Disc Association to come up with the idea of a homogeneous area code, which helps users avoid the hassle of using it. .
