Re: Your DVD Collection...
Yes and no.
Most blu-ray players are locked to their respective regions.
In some cases they can play only DVD's from a particular region (e.g. North American Region A Blu-Ray player can only play region 1 DVD).
However some Blu Ray players may be region locked for Blu Ray but are multi-region for DVD playback only.
It just depends on what you buy.

Re: Your DVD Collection...
Can one play a regular DVD on a Blu-Ray player?

Re: Your DVD Collection...
I finally bought a Blu-ray player today. And picked up one Blu-ray disc. I planned to pick up two but none of the lower priced Blu-rays were titles I wanted to buy, some not just yet so I picked up one that's a bit more expensive and that is The Thing.
