    I'm thinking of buying a blu ray drive for my HTPC at the end of the week (payday!)

    Any recommendations on what to buy? I'm looking for best value where possible.

    Or, should I infact purchase a standalone player? Although that would defeat the purpose of the HTPC build :duh:

    The HTPC was built around an article in CPC, has AM2 5000 X2, 2gb ram, ATI HD4670 in an Antec Fusion 430 case (Silver with VFD) Vista 32bit using VMC.

    So I believe the rest of the hardware is ready, but there are a couple [BD players] around the same price bracket so don't know whats best.

    cheers

    LG's GGC-H20L tends to be the most widely recommended and reviewed, so I'd shoot for that if I were you.
