I must ask, why watch DVDs on your computer in the first place? Isn't that what a TV and DVD player is for? You'll get a much better picture that way, too.

Because I don't have a DVD player. Or a TV for that matter. Why buy a DVD player when you can watch films on your PC? Also when I watch DVDs I don't have to sit through copyright messages, because I'm using a free software player to view them.

Considering I've seen DVD players for as low as $40, and I've seen DVD-ROM drives run for $50 or more, I just haven't seen the attraction. Although if you don't have a TV, then I can understand.

Monitors are higer res then regular TV's. And my PC's sound system is far better then my TV's. I'll take my PC over my TV anyday.
