i thought i might bump this thread because i have discovered a new media player that blew my mind. and i dont think many people in the u.s. know about this company and what they are doing. the company is called "hdi" and their line of players are called "dune" media players. i have done a ton of research on these players and have decided to invest in 1. they have several models to fit all needs. most notable is the "dune max" this one has a hotswap hdd rack for a 2 tb hdd on the right side. and on the left is a bluray disc drive. how awesome is that? it will play everything as agood media player should but what sets these apart is the fact that they will play full bluray from the harddrive with full menus. not just soft menus. like most players. but i am not getting the "max" model i am getting the "duo" model this 1 instead of a bluray optical drive has yet another hotswap 2 tb hdd rack. for a wapping 4tb of internal storage and to top it off 3 usb 2.0 ports which can handle 2 tb external hdd's that adds up to 10 tb of storage. talk about going all digital? i have already started ripping full blurays in anticipation of the dune duo i am ordering next week. i will have 1 internal hdd with all dvd iso files and 1 with all bd iso files.  this dune and the popcorn hour are the only 2 players on the market that can play bd with full menus from the harddrive and well popcornhour's are cool but they do not hold a candle to the dune lineup. oh an did i mention that dune also has an app for modding the gui and will support moviesheets like the wdtv or xbmc. i had to tell you guys about this because this is the media player i have been dreaming of. only 1 con so far. they are pricey. the duo is $380.00 and the max is $450.00 ouch i know but so worth it for a media junkie like me. so if anyone is interested in owning the most kickass hd media player available today go have a look at their site. http://dune-hd.com/
