Not starting this thread in an effort to start a debate, just a general question... why would someone want to build a home theater PC?
From what i could see is..
- DVD players in your PC tend to be more reliable and cheaper than stand alone DVDs
- BLU Ray players are cheaper in the PC, unless you have already invested in a PS3
- 5.1 and 7.1 is easier to setup, again unless you have a PS3 ( i think? )
....?
There is the general idea that you could uh, watch legally downloaded videos *cough* sorry, i have a cold, and then watch those through the PC, but is that it really?
