Answer 3

Blu Ray players are full-fledged DVD players (it's actually a different laser within the Player) so the answer is that so long as the DVD can play in a traditional DVD Player, it should be compatible in a BD player.

Blu Ray/VHS combo?  That would be sort of like an iPod with a Record Player attached.... don't expect to see that

Answer 4

Yes only you wuill not gt the full picutre quality you wantand expect

Answer 5

yes a blu-ray player will play your standard region 1 dvds, and it will even upscale the resolution of the regular dvds if you an hdmi cable for your hook-up. you will probably never see a blu-ray/vhs combo player. there is always a possibility but i would be very surprised  .
