I am not sure if it is region free or not. I bought this for our camper When we go camping for our kids to watch movies when they are tired of being outside. It does the job of playing all dvds that we bought from the stores.
No . It only plays physical DVDs - no streaming. It will play the Netflix DVDs that come in the red envelopes, but do they even offer that service any more?
I have not tried to play a Blue Ray on it. It is my understanding that a blue Ray player will play a DVD, but a DVD will not play a blue ray. Not an expert here !
