    Personally, I would stick with the xbox 360.

    My brother has a ps3 after trading in his xbox and its bog average.

    i tried it but it just wasnt stable enough
    i could do it for some files but the massive ones were just too high bandwidth
    i was already wired but just wanted to see

    If I ever have problems I stream to save to hardrive and I can watch whenever I like (I know someone streamed a 23gig filesize to his PS3s harddrive with no problems)
