    Need to look at this vs. online storage. It can hold 200 DVDs or CDs. One extremely cool feature is you can load it with your CD collection and batch rip! It will also play DVDs via MCE's interface. Need to figure out how flexible it is ... SDK, alternate OS compatibility, etc. Tempting to wait for a BD version, but $399.99 after rebate isn't THAT ridiculous.

    I could recover some of the cost by offering "CD ripping services" for people with big collections :)

      There's alot more to do with 400 bucks, dude. It'll probably still be a techno-geek thing until later.

      I don't know. I'm pretty sure we need another black box.

      When BD / HD-DVD come out, these sorts of devices will make a lot of sense. 25GB per disc is not happening on hard drives!
