The face of movie distribution continues to change. According to Sony, the US and Japan will be included in the same region so far as Blu-ray Disc players and movies are concerned.

So many players and computers can get around this already. I think the amount of people actively searching for these products for import will be negligible. I think it's safe to say that those with all the latest in HD are the same people that are still going to the movies. More often than not, the movie you want to see in HD, you'll still want to see on a theater screen if you can.
