If its significantly under 500 quid it isn't an hd-dvd player.

That's what I'm doing Jamie

I don't use the 360 for watching DVDs, makes too much of a noise for one and doesn't compare with the Denon If the pricing is true though I'm definitely going to be getting the addon.

A 360 hd-dvd add on is hardly an hd-dvd player.

It is just a pc drive, which you need either an xbox 360 or a pc with software to use.

Slightly different although yes it is quite cheap.

yes it won't have all the bells and whistles that other more expensive HD-DVD players will have but it's still an HD-DVD player whichever way you look at it.

No i'm saying that you can't just go out and buy that without an xbox.

Yes its a good price if you already have an xbox and want to play hd-dvds though.

I was only replying to the you can get an hd-dvd player for 120 quid.

You can't.

You can get an hd-dvd drive for 120 quid which is useless on its own, so as I originally said, if its significantly under 500 quid its not an hd-dvd player.

thanks Captain Obvious

just kidding mate, I know what you're saying. The whole lot will cost near enough the cost of a proper HD DVD player (360 + HD Drive).

I know I'll still be getting a HD-DVD player when they come down in price, wonder if Denon are doing any.....
