Very different: to the point I don't see a reason to bother with computer video storage. How often do I watch a given movie? I wonder at myself sometimes as to why I buy movies instead of renting: renting is almost surely a better bargain... How often would I have 'random play' or anything like it that would need good indexing and 'always online' availablility. Knowing roughly where the cd is seems to work pretty well. Would I lose DVD navigation features? For some discs this would destroy them (say Icky Flix or the Commercial DVD by The Residents...). I just don't see what computer-stored video gives you that a DVD doesn't... in fact, I see drawbacks when the menu structure is stripped out. -- snarlydwarf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=62455 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
