I want to listen to that.
That'd be great in our bedroom.
I'd store stuff on this!
This'd be great for our bedroom!
I'd love it for the bedroom. I would not, however, make love to it in the bedroom.
I'd actually say that Meet the Robinsons is a good demo movie. It's clean and crisp and you have a few opportunities to really show off the surround sound, especially when bowler hat guy is echoing the dark before appearing to Cornelius with the time machine. What's more, the movie is completely family friendly!
I've got a season pass on the TiVo for this sucker. The best way to watch this show is to record it on Sunday morning and then go back and watch the first 5 minutes. If you don't see anything you're interested in, delete it. If there's one or two stories, jump right to them, watch them, then delete it. It's wonderful.
The only thing harder than moving discs around is moving data on hard disks around. I just don't see viewers embracing a model where they are constantly having to backup their content and copy it to ever-larger hard drives. It's easy to buy a new shelf if you need more space. Moving the content means a couple of arm and hand maneuvers and you're done. Copying content between drives and ensuring it's all backed up is NOT user-friendly enough and it never will be. Then, if you want to use it somewhere else it's a copy either to an external drive or another drive via the network.

Oh, and it may not work there due to DRM. We've already seen this with digital music and I don't think consumers will put up with it for video content.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"What is the best wireless surround sound speaker solution? I have a home theater where running wires is just not feasible. I have my own speakers, so I don't want a system that has speakers with integrated wireless. I've done a far amount of research and have only come across a few companies that even offer a reasonable solution: KEF, Kenwood and Rocketfish. Is there anything else out there? What do you recommend? Thank you!"
