So, I have a PS3 in the living room, which has never played a single game on it. I bought it to play blu-rays\dvd's, stream Netflix, and video from my computer (mostly .mkv's and .avi's). Now, with a PS3 being a video game system, you'd think a bulk of the PS3's price is that ability to play video games, with all that other stuff being just bonuses. Is there a device, cheaper than a PS3, that can do all the stuff a PS3 can with ease, minus the video games? I know they have those Roku and GoogleTV devices that can stream Netflix, and video from my computer (not sure if they can do all the formats that PS3 Media Server can though), but they don't play Blu-Rays\DVDs. I know there are internet Blu-Ray players that can stream Netflix, but I don't think they can stream video from a PC. Are there any devices that are an all-in-one, that are cheaper than a PS3?
