That's correct. But you can't buy an external BluRay drive for the xbox,
even now.
I mean, if you buy a PS3, you can avoid buying a bluray disk player, which
costs about half what a PS3 costs in the USA at least. And I understand the
PS3 player is a very nice implementation.
If you buy an XBox, it plays games, and media, but no blu-ray. It'll play HD
netflix stuff, I think, but I'm not sure how that works in Europe.
