The big myth all of these manufacturers buy into is they think consumers want to make there own Blu-Ray or HDD DVD disks. I know all I want is a Tivo like HDD PVR with two digital tuners for picking up unscrambled digital cable TV.
Making Blu-Ray or HD DVD disks is a waste of time and adds extra cost to the price of the units.
actually, i do want to make my own hddvds of some of the things i watch. and this for a grand at 600GB is way better than sharp's bluray charging more than twice as much for half the hard drive. still too expensive, but maybe in 2 yrs it'll come down in cost and be worth a look.
