Guys
Are there any multi region (for SD playback) blu-ray players out there? Or is anyone modifying the players to make them multi-region. I ideally want one player to handle ALL of my media...

If you use a HTPC, you can use the LG multi BR/HD-DVD drive (or any internal BD drive for that matter) and AnyDVD-HD.

It strips BR region coding.

I love SlySoft, don't know what I would do without it.
