When I heard the price of the 360 drive, I wondered why some tech company could not mass produce a PC read-only drive for about the same price. If this external HD-DVD device is anywhere near $200 like the 360 drive, say goodbye to Blu-Ray. At anywhere near that price point, many current hold-outs (including myself) would definitely jump on the HD bandwagon. With all the HTPCs being built and new cards like the X1600 Pro HDMI and ASUS EN7600GT HDMI, this would be a phenomenally cheap way to get HD movie content now.
