I think part of it has to do with ease of using the device, or lack there of... If you can simply plug a 1 TB drive to ur 360, then downloaded movies is a snap...and as compression tech gts better, it makes it even more feasible to download higher quality formats thru Digital downloads...right onto a 2 TB HDD.

I don't trust portable HDs anymore. I had one that tipped over and it had a head crash. Securing them inside a PC is much safer for the drive.

Kind of defeats the point of them being portable though...

Yeah it does.

I kept it sitting on my PC plugged in. One day I noticed my headphones were gone and my drive was dead. My kid must have knocked it off stealing my headphones.

Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.
