My very first media player was a WDTV Live, bought it November 2009 and still going strong.
I thought it was already saying it's goodbyes after a year of use when the picture starts to stutter... luckily and thankfully to the threads here at PinoyDVD, I was told to try a firmware update and to my surprise my "stock" WDTV was still v1.0 and the firmware update solved the stuttering.
The mede8er 300X I won during the Christmas EB of 2010 is still ok, but it's power supply conked out after a year of use. I modified an old PC PSU to power it and to power ALL my external HDDs so they all have one central PSU now.
