I can
guarantee you that MCE is the best Media and Content management
software available to you today.

Not even remotely close. If you honestly think that trying to train a client on how to jump through multiple hoops to simply rip a single movie (and God forbid it be a Disney or Sony Pictures release) is the best scenario, then you're overstating your credentials. Love 'em or hate 'em, dedicated servers kick the ever living crap out of any MCE platform. PERIOD. No comparison.


with folks like walmart and Best Buy announcing movie
downloads that need a PC in the living room, this is something
that is only going to become more prodominant in your
space, much like integrating a cable or satellite box.

Agreed. There are other options, though. DRM is the biggest struggle there.

Today there are some fairly lucrative MCE hardware peices
that are very stable and if you take time to learn and
understand the platform, there is a solid business model
there.

Debate-able but I do agree to a point. Niveus makes a great machine. But they attempt to sell it as an all in one entertainment center replacing all but the amp. Yeah, right. Cable freakin' card...c'mon. We live and work in the real world.

|That aside, Lifeware is the ultimate hi profit
integration peice in the market today.

Highly debate-able...

|we also would love to have your
feedback as to what we can add/change to make it better.

Adjust your outrageous TP pricing or be more honest about a cost comparison with the industry leaders. It's an "either/or" scenario.
