Sir Simonzaide gave all the points that you have to consider for this unit,
at first I wasn't that keen in getting a media player,
all I wanted was to somehow be able to watch some video clips
from the web on my current system, got tired of burning DVDs
and playing it sa DVD player ko, I was looking for a media player
that wasn't too heavy on the pocket, and a player na walang built in hard drive,
less parts, less prone na may masisira, I'd rather have an external drive na nakakabit
sa kanya, then I did asked first sa mga kaibigan ko kung ano ang mga gamit nila,
most of them uses Popcorn Hour, but was really pricey, and the next on the list is this unit,
followed by the Egreat, I chose the WD mainly because of its support, napansin ko kasi
na ang daming complains sa ibang brands, may mga hindi na mai-upgrade or downgrade
ang mga firmwares nila, so I decided to get this unit...
Too bad walang stock si Vic (S&S) nung naghahanap ako ng unit, he has the best priced
unit, 5200 for the WD TV Live, kay Listening Room ako nakakuha at 5400, I hate waiting kaya
kinuha ko na yun... A good friend told me na once na makakuha ka ng WD media player, hindi mo na mahahawakan ang mga DVD player mo, he was right, even my mp3s sounds really good, (used the optical connection), though I must warn you, having a media player is really addicting, at first sabi ko sapat na ang 500GB ko na external, pero ng makita ko ang PQ and AQ ng mga movies, I WANT MORE,...
I want to see most of my favorite movies inside this media player, kaya I am poised to get an external WD 1TB my Book,..
What I love about this gadget is its convenience, just think, in a BD or DVD, you'd have to replace the disc kung hindi mo gusto ang pinapanuod mo, wherein sa media player, you'll just have to use the remote, dang, ginagawang tamad ng technology talaga ang mga tao, hehehe....
cheers and happy viewing,..!
