The media center idea is a great idea, but is not ready for today. I am trying to design a system that allows faculty to record any media from cable, satellite, web cast, and OTA to a SAN and play it back at any classroom in the building (and on campus, eventually). The system will cost a small fortune, require the best networks and some software development. So the technology is not there today for the average media user. The PC can get close, but not without a large price tag and some technical expertise. But it is definitely something to look for on the horizon. So for now, I guess we are stuck with separate tuners, media storage, removable media players, etc., to feed one display!
