I am not sure about the Region 8, but it CAN play Blueray and DvD's, this is why most people buy them, it is basically like a 1,000 dollar DVD player for around 400
No, I don't think so. But it won't hurt to try.

i do not think so. the hardware for a dvd player is not the same as a blu-ray player
No only a PlayStation 3 can play Blu-ray discs, DVDs and CDs, the PlayStation 2 can play DVDs and CDs, and the PlayStation plays CDs
No. They are region locked.
Yes. Some Blu-Ray players can even play photo CDs and some can even display data on SD cardsAll players can, but not the very early ones (the first ones were manufactured in 2006)All Blu-Ray players can play DVDs and CDs
Yes they are. They all play DVDs and Blu-Ray discs.Yes they do. They need to be connected to the HDTV with 1080P and a HDMI cable for the Bluray to work as a Blue ray disc player

Inception is coming to DVD and Bluray on December 6th. Its official

A DVD player cannot play a BluRay disc. A BluRay player can play both BluRay discs and DVDs.
DVD players and drives cannot handle Bluray discs, whether recording to them or reading from them. Bluray players and drives on the other hand can use DVD discs as well as Bluray discs.
HD DVD and Bluray are both high definition disc formats but they were not only competitive formats but incompatible formats as well. While the battle for the HD market was in progress a handful of players were sold that would support both formats. These players were expensive and very few were ever sold. Unfortunately, HD DVD only players will not play Bluray and Bluray players will not play HD DVD discs. It is still worth keeping HD DVD players as they are the only players capable of HD DVD discs.
No it cannot you need a ps3 or a bluray player
A DVD will play on the computer because the computers are made to play DVD's. The Xbox 360 will not play DVD's because they are made to only play BluRay discs.
No it cannot you need a ps3 or a bluray player
DVD players cannot play Bluray discs. The lasers and the data storage are different so no data can be read from a Bluray disc in a DVD drive. That is the case whether or not there is any up-scaling available in the player. Bluray players on the other hand are quite happy to play DVDs as well as Bluray discs.
No. All current 3D disc content is HD and so use Bluray discs. You have to have a 3D Bluray player.
Netflix Playstation store DVD BluRay discs
It reads the discs whether they are CD DVD or BluRay, it can not write or burn discs
BluRay discs carry high definition television and therefore store data in a high density format. A standard definition DVD player will not recognise a BluRay disc and will simply report an error if one is loaded. On the other hand, a BluRay player will not only play BluRay discs but will also handle standard DVDs. Most will also recognise and play CD format discs. Most Bluray players will also down convert the HD signal from a BluRay disc so that it can be viewed on a standard definition television. In this case, of course, the image quality will be the same as any other standard definition signal. To benefit from the high definition signal, an HD television is also required.
Computers can only play Blu-Ray discs if their optical drive is a Bluray drive rather than a DVD.
