DesignersTalk - View Single Post - WD TV HD Media Player -- A Crimbo 2008 "Must Have"

"WD TV" costs R1666 and "Vantec Jukebox AVOX-101S2 2.5" costs R735. Both require hard drives (external / internal respectively). Both can play .avi files on a
TV, but I'm not sure why the WD is so much more expensive.

I've already backed up most of my movies to DVD, so it's a pity that I won't be able to use my DVD's on the WD. Why not just buy a DVD player that can play DivX and includes a USB port? Then you have the best of both worlds.
