This is one of my pet peeves. Why would we want multiple pieces of equipment in our systems with redundant functionality ?
If you have a DVD/blue ray player, an AV receiver/pre-pro and an HD TV in your system, you probably have 3 sets of video scaling software. This is of no benifit to anyone and drives costs up for everyone.
We use components to get the best-of-breed for each function, redundancy is simply a waste of recources that eventually drives the price up.
If Wi-fi has become the province of DVD/Blue Ray players , why duplicate it in your pre-pro ?
