Yup, because their licence for the content requires it as they only have US distribution rights. Hardly their fault, and certainly not their fault that fans like the quality, additional content and extra mile they go for.

Essentially, its the same complaint that a US MacBook won't come with an AU charger - it's not intended for that market.

That said, for under $100 you can get a Laser Blu-ray Disc player from Big W that is region switchable. You can't get an all-region BD player, but this one can be set to DVD region 0 (ie: not locked) and BD zone A with the press of a few buttons, with no restrictions on how many times you can do it.

Coming from someone who once had a mate who was on a tour in the US buy a Playstation 3 from a mall in New Orleans and cart it back with him, it's a hell of a lot easier and cheaper.
