Page 1 of region 1 vs region 2
DVDs & Films Forum
Having just bought a multiregion dd5.1,dts dvd player I was just looking at play.com,I want to buy my son (and me) the Emperor`s New Groove.The region 1 version says after the title that it is 5.1,dts plus in the aspect box that it is anamorphic ,the region 2 disc says nothing. Before I had a region 2 only player so I never compared discs before and there was no problem but now Its left me wondering if they didn`t bother informing region 2 buyers of these features or that unbelievably they havent put these features on at all.
More often than not, region 1 has the better features/transfer/sound.
To compare discs of all regions, go to

They will tell u what is the best region for a certain disc.

Try this web site also for direct comaparisons, but as Dicanio said, region 1 usually has the options/quality. Region 2 users really get the s*** end of the stick..............
