The only way to minimize the impact of this is to say"Yet another expensive BD player."

Nice spin.

This is a full featured HD recorder that can store a great amount of full HD content and write full 50gb BD disks from the content. It is also a very high quality BD player while it's at it.

I'm fairly sure that if this played HD-DVD vd BD you wouldn't be saying just an overpriced HD player.

Content fans look stupid when them minimize a really cool product just because it isn't on their side.

While it's not "just" a player, it's still pretty hard to deny that it's a lot of money. While there should be some UI advantages to a set-top box, I'd rather just add a BR drive to my HTPC, whose combined cost is far less than that.
