Why do you say it leap-frogs ArcSoft's TotalMedia? Is PDVD better or do you just mean it's caught up?
I got sick of waiting for PDVD to support MCE -- and also sick of PDVD's bugs, slow download servers (coupled with the constant need for patches for Blu-Ray playback bugs/compatibilty/improvements) and upgrade policy/pricing -- so I was about to give TotalMedia Theater a try. Having not tested it out yet I'd be interested in knowing how they compare.
The MC integration of PDVD9 is much better than the current version of TMT. All TMT does is launch its own 10' UI on top of MC. This is an actual native Media Center application.
