Oh great... I get to download a whopping 2 hours of High Definition content to my 360! Wow! Even if I can upgrade the 360 harddrive, what are they going to charge? $200? $300?
Maybe we can save the content to our networked PC? Oh wait... it will be riddled with DRM Whats that M$? We need to upgrade our PC's to run Windows Vista in order to watch HD Content that we have purchased using our Xbox 360? And it requires an HDCP Version 1.3 Encrypted Monitor if I want to watch the legally purchased video on my PC Monitor which happens to be a 50" DLP HDTV... Oh and I need to upgrade my video card so that it supports HDCP encryption too? Well I do have a brand new 7800GT. Oh, but only the vid cards supplied to BIG Large OEMS have enabled HDCP, so I'm S.O.L. until the chips are installed on Retail Video Cards even though they've been enabled for large oem media PC's like Dells and Sony's.
Lets thank the RIAA, MPAA and M$ for DRM and HDCP! yeahhh..
On second thought... I think I'll I'll stick to my 1.5Terabyte media server... record HD over the air for free, playback my DVD's, ISO's, Divx, Xvid, MPG1/MPG2, VOBS, BINS, CUES, etc stored on my media server and stream them to my 1st Gen Modded Xbox with XBMC to my bedroom and my home theater pc to my living room.
Than I'll wait until Blu-ray/HD-DVD encryption is cracked so that I can use my legally purchased HD content the way I find most fit... at MY CONVENIENCE
Don't give in to these corporate schmucks.... wait them out. They'll eventually give or we'll eventually crack their shiat so that we can use our media they way we want.
DirecTV blade coming to 360 Dashboard?
