But on the other hand, watching movies behind your computerdesk is not as comfortable as sitting in the livingroom on a relaxed sofa! ;D

The pics are from Windows Media Center.
And I'm not behind my computer desk, on the couch, I have my computer hooked up to my 46" LCD in the living room.

i got over a terabyte of HD shit downloaded. only @ 720p cause my 32 inch screen isn't full 1080p. there's quite a bit of stuff that you can't get on disc yet anyway.

will get a blu-ray player and start building a collection before long though. and burning my downloaded stuff to BD compatible discs.

Out of curiosity, why would you want to do that?  Isn't it a pain in the ass to burn everything, you already have all the computer files ready to play and at your finger tips when it's on your hard drive.

so i can take discs downstairs to play on the plasma/blu-ray player that is not connected to a computer. i'd probably burn all the stuff i don't think is that amazing too so i can just delete it off my hard drive. and the best shit so i got some form of backups.

I see, I only have one TV so I don't have to do anything like that but if I got a TV in another room I'd get this: http://www.westerndigital.com/en/products/Products.asp?DriveI=735. 
It's a media player with network capabilities.  You can access your computer(s) from it or hook up an external hard drive or pop in a flash drive.  It's not bad for a $120 or so. 

And I think it's probably cheaper to just buy another hard drive to back your stuff up than blank blu ray discs.

yeah i got enough hard drives already...nice to have some disc copies too. most of my 720p rips fit on a single layered dvd-r so inexpensive enough for the media. just gotta burn in the correct format so it plays on a BD player.
