| Portal Member  | I'm waiting for a hd-dvd ide/sata driver to be released with a reasonable price. Any ideas on when that will happen? (A combined hd-dvd / blueray player would be better though)

| What bugs me is that if there was no DRM, I would buy the content on any format that they could deliver, a stack of DVD-roms, whatever. The studios would make more money from me that way. And we all now that the pirates will win anyways. Ah. Broke my own thread rules there :-) I sure hope that the nvidia drivers are hacked so that I can view content without purchasing a totally unnecessary graphics card -k |

| Portal Member | I've read that the usb based hd-dvd player for the xbox 360 is possible to use with computers if an interface / application for it is developed. I'm planning on buying the xbox player and has begun collecting hd-dvd movies already
