Everything is organized with media browser,cover art,info about the movie etc is automatically downloaded for me.
I just have it in my living room hooked up to my big screen,but im in the process of converting my bonus room into a home theatre room and will either move it there or build another.
Can also use it to to record/pause TV, i have a dual digital/analog tuner but dont use it much.
Can also surf the web on your tv play pc games etc.

Where did you get a bluray dvd software from? I bought a bluray DVDR and tried a few apps and nothing worked that well and most couldn't rip newer movies.
Id love to have my collection on some harddrives in my house. its a pain to go out to the living room, grab a movie, head back to the bedroom then gf decides she wants something else, blah blah blah. then i leave them there, fall behind the night stand, go to bestbuy and buy it again
