The biggest problem with owning the black box that stores your 500 movie collection is, at some point it will fail.
Not might fail, IT WILL FAIL. They all fail, always and there's nothing you can do to stop it. The regular user who's to scared to buy a computer isn't going to plug an external firewire drive into that box and back it up on a regular basis. They want their stuff to be at their fingertips all the time.
Moog, you may have hard drives full of the digital media but since you're not an "average user" you probably keep backups of the media and games you've purchased. (at least I hope you do)
We've been on DirectTV for just over a year now and have already gone through two different HDTV/DVR boxes. Both times losing dozens of unwatched shows and movies.
Until they get it right, I want a disc in my hand that I can stick on a shelf and not worry about anything happening to it unless I do something myself.
