Whats this NHL thing you speak of? I think I saw that on ESPN classic one time...
You can find most of these on Bit torrent with 720p version. They are from when these showed on ABC a few years ago. Its suck because of the fade in and out but the quality is great.
Ben come on no Texas vs Texas Tech?
Funny how everyone(Including myself) gets mad over the rumored cancellation of a rumored product.. :-)
Will this require special hardware, or is it just software?
So it cost $250 for this Audio card to get PCM lossless(That will probably not work right for 6 months), but I can get a Bluray player with PCM lossless for $200?

Richard are you sure this is legal? This must be braking some type of law some where right? This is worse than people selling a gallon of water for $20 after a hurricane...
Man I hope your joking, if not your Delusional about HTPC's popularity..

Yes the 360 can either Boot to Dashboard, Boot to Media Center, or Boot to Game Disc
You can play 4GB+ files fine in Media Center7. The 4Gb file limit is a issue when tiring to play back files in the dash board.

Media Center Video Playback is like a comlpetely septrate box when compared to playing videos back in the dashboard.

For the longest time the dashboard was way ahead of the Media Center interface on the the 360 as far as codec support. Now with Win7 + the DIVX preview the Media Center playback has more support than the dashboard.
It will play Vob no wbut you don't get RW\FF, ofr chapter support. If its a single vob the best thing to do it remux it to DVRMS. Then you get full RW\FF. It only take a few minutes since your just remuxxing the file and not re-encoding. You use DVRMS Toolbox to do it.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a pair of quality headphones that aren't seemingly made of glass. I'm an avid BMXer which causes me to frequently bash on any type of technology that joins me for my daily riding. I've been through the higher quality headsets in the Skullcandy line as these are supposed to be built for "abuse," which is laughable. I cant wear earbuds or canal buds, as my large ears seem to have a repelling property upon anything that sits in them. Wired or Bluetooth doesn't really matter, but I need something that can hold up to taking a few hits every now and again. I'm trying to keep 'em under $150. Thanks!"
