No getting up to load a disc, no worrying about a disc getting damaged by the grandkids, no more trying to find a disc, no more lots of other pains that you all are way too familiar with. I really like the fact that I can use BD-Rebuilder to make a Blu-Ray copy in may different ways, then just convert the copy to an ISO and play it, no muss, no fuss. Take a look sometime at the WDTV Live or Asus O!Play media players... They are a great option and I think probably the future of how we watch movies.
just a thought...

that looks like a great idea but would only be good for BD-5 & 9 backups because I'm still stuck with the analogs.
in the long run it will more than pay for it self because of the power you save compared to running a PC
