I currently use my Xbox to stream MP3s, videos, check the weather and of course play games from the 250GB hard drive I installed in it. Potentially you could serve files off of it. It would lack security though.

I don't think I could get away with that. The wife isn't very computer literate and downloading all the shows would probably consume some time.


Ok very cool. Are you intending to use Windows Media Center to control your PVR? I was reading that site you recommened and it appears that there are other programs that do similar things to the Media Center, though I'm under the impression WMC does a great job of it all.

Keep me posted on your progress.

As for the downloads. I should tell you I watch two TV shows. It wouldnt work if you were watching many programs nightly. Though here we get around 600-700k/s downloads. Off giganew.com news group that means a TV show in about 5-10 minutes.
