I have a modded xbox with xboc media-centre installed. This has been the case for some years now, and has served me quite well. However, I'm beginning to feel an interest towards HTPC's. The majority of my media content is hosted on my Linux server and shared via Samba across the network. Now that my linux server is beginning to get full, and I havent found the time to archive things off onto dvd, i have started using my main pc for sharing media accross the network, whether it be packed images of dvds/xvids or mp3s. Would it be feasable to replace the xbox with a HTPC, and would it be beneficial. I am drawn to the idea of building something more fitting with the living room surroundings.
ps: does anyone else here have a similar setup (interms of xbox+xbmc)
Thankyou in advance for your educated advises.
