They'll still be regional, they do that so they can have different prices in different places and because some regions have different or censored content.

Need a proper g33k to answer the other part of your question.

Yesy, the have regions.

UK is region B.
US is region A.

You can get some region free discs that'll play any player, but only certain movies are region free. I Am Legend and Cloverfield are two off the top of my head. Oh and Kidulthood.
