Upgrade blu-ray player to play latest disc ?

I got my latest Amazon order the other day and tonight I thought I would watch one of the movies. When I put the disc in my htpc that’s using cyber link Power dvd 10, the disc would not play, error 24. It suggested to upgrade to a newer version. I clicked ok and after a few minutes of waiting it said it could not play disc.( auto update)
After trying the basic things I decided to download the newest version form the cyber link homepage (power DVD 12) after the installation the blue-ray finally played, but to what price ? 50 usd for the standard version of power DVD and up to about 100 usd for the ultimate ? What if I didn’t have a htpc but a normal player, would I have to change to a new player to get the disc to play… The disc was one of the new triple play discs so I guess I could always download the movie. But I refuse tho pay a few extra pounds for blu-ray and play an old DVD.. ( I don’t know who would play the DVD disc when they can get blu-ray quality )

Was hoping for a double movie night but had in the end only time to see one movie..

And the movie Johnny English Reborn .. I absolutely adore the first movie, it’s so much fun. As always the second movie not as good as the first but still ok.
