For the moment I'm BR / Physical centric with renting of disks.

I like the idea of downloads but for me it still takes too long and I balk at the idea if waiting for 10 plus GB of data to download when I could be using that bandwidth to play games or stream radio stations or both.

Also, I thought BR's were pretty durable, what does you GFs family do with them?

BTW you can backup content and I believe worst case is you'd need to re-download on a new PS3.

Im thinking children got to them. I have a psp and I have thought of using it as a back up for my ps3 since I really don't use it much unless i'm on a trip. Every movie I have is about 2.5 gig hd version, can you upgrade the HDD in the new models?

Yah, so far as I know.  Upgrading the HDD is probably worth it if you really want to put movies, etc. on your PS3.  I tend to buy BR but I've got lots of other videos, music videos, etc. plus a lot of music and photos on my PS3, so I upgraded the HDD and backup to an external HDD.

Actually, I believe for movies simply plugging in an external HDD via USB could work for you too if you don't want to change your PS3 HDD.  Check carefully first, though, as I'm not sure the PSN Video service or Netflix or whatever will recognise and allow you to use an external HDD.

I stuck a 250 GB HDD in my PS3 and attached another 500GB via USB.  Lol, that seems so crazy.  It's insane the amount of HDD people easily rack up now!
