 More and more these days, entertainment is coming in digital form. Be it a Music Album, the latest Movie or your favourite TV Show, the internet has allowed for greater access to them all through a range of download services. In addition, as technology has advanced, people have increasingly been able to copy/convert their old DVDs, CDs and even VHS and Cassette tapes into digital format.

Until now though, one needed to huddle around a relatively small computer screen to view such files. Alternatively, with advanced knowledge of home computing, it was possible to purchase expensive  routing devices which, with some tweaking, could be networked together and files could be streamed from the Computer to the TV. These options just weren't feasible to the average person.

Introducing the HDD Multi Media Player.

An HDD Media Player (aka Hard Disk Drive Media Player) is a portable device that plugs into your home entertainment system. At even their most basic level, Media Players can store and play all your digital content, including movies, TV shows, music, photos and more. The device comes with an inbuilt computer Hard Drive that lets you keep your entire entertainment library on the Player iteself. You are also able to plug in other Media Storage devices, so you will never run out of space on your Digital Media Player.

One level up is a Digital Media Recorder or PVR. This device has all the functionalities of an HDD Media Player, however it can also record straight from your set-top box, pay TV box, DVD player as well as game consoles e.g. PS3, Xbox360 or Wii. This means you will never have to miss out on that movie or episode ever again as with just basic programming, you can record it straight to the inbuilt Hard Drive. Additionally, you are able to Pause, Rewind, Fast Forward and Instant Replay live TV. For pro-gamers, you can become a movie director and upload the latest machinemas to Youtube!

For those of you with a more advanced understanding of home computing and networking, these devices can also be linked to other shared drives in your house for file streaming and transfer. 

So, now that you know a little bit more about HDD Media Players, it's time to take a leap into the future of entertainment. You no longer need to worry about storing a bulky DVD library. You no longer have to avoid damaging your discs or tapes and keeping them clean and organised. Your eyes no longer need to hurt from watching that action thriller on your 15" computer screen. You never need to miss your favourite TV Show again. You no longer need to be restricted to watching your recorded files on the device you record them. You no longer need to go shopping for DVDs.

HDD Media Players are the next generation, ensuring you a pleasurable, hassle free media viewing experience from the comfort of your living room.
