Well, it all depends on perspective ...
If you had to buy the PS3 just for that purpose, you'd probably be
right. In that case, I would rather be looking at a streaming media
client. Some of them have HDTV as well these days, such as for example
the Kiss DP-600 oder the latest D-Link DSM. Well
A PS3 running VDR is more of a novelty item considering the price. For the
cost, you could easily build a computer that can handle HDTV, be a lot more
robust, and have money left over.
I say this jokingly but not every idea is a good one mate! :)
