Blu-ray Disc Region Codes
Blu-ray Discs use a much simpler region-code system than DVD with only three regions, labeled A, B and C.
| Region code | Area |
|---|---|
| A | Includes most North, Central and South American countries and South-east Asian countries including the Republic of China (Taiwan), Hong Kong, Japan and Korea. |
| B | Includes most European and Middle-Eastern countries, all of Africa, Australia and New Zealand. |
| C | Includes the remaining central and south Asian countries, as well as the People's Republic of China, Russia, Belarus and Ukraine |

Famous quotes containing the words disc, region and/or codes:
“This is D.J., Disc Jockey to American turning off. Vietnam, hot dam.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“The Heavens. Once an object of superstition, awe and fear. Now a vast region for growing knowledge. The distance of Venus, the atmosphere of Mars, the size of Jupiter, and the speed of Mercury. All this and more we know. But their greatest mystery the heavens have kept a secret. What sort of life, if any, inhabits these other planets? Human life, like ours? Or life extremely lower in the scale. Or dangerously higher.”
—Richard Blake, and William Cameron Menzies. Narrator, Invaders from Mars, at the opening of the movie (1953)
“We must trust infinitely to the beneficent necessity which shines through all laws. Human nature expresses itself in them as characteristically as in statues, or songs, or railroads, and an abstract of the codes of nations would be an abstract of the common conscience.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
