Re: DVDs... meh

The "unnecessary crap" is the primary reason to get the DVD. The movies themselves are rarely that compelling.

Who wants to drag around a computer to watch movies on, either?

Whatever floats your boat...

Do you drag around your DVD Player too? Its called a Media Center PC and you can get them special form factors but I wasnt hoping for that. I really would like an affordable Netflix Set-Top box thats simple enough for anyone to use and has all the Home Theater connectors.

Yeah, I take a small portable DVD player with me and watch on that instead of the computer. Far longer battery life, better user interface, much smaller (helps on airplane tray tables) and much easier to carry.

And...much cheaper to replace when something happens to it while travelling.
