Because if you buy the system that has all of them, you dont need to buy the other ones.

kinda talking in circles.

movies and tv are something most every gamer users.

games are not something most every movie watcher uses.

And for some consoles, that are already using a DVD drive for media, adding DVD playback is not costing much and just makes sence.
what the hell would be the point to use a DVD drive and take away its ability to play movies? xbox and PS2 did not go out of thier way to add DVD playback. it was there already basically.

tivo is another matter, it might have something to do witht he hard drive tho and its prolly more like tivo ability not really the tivo brand.

the ability to use tivo style things is cheap. i can download free ones and run em on my PC just like a Tivo would work.

As long as they're not going out of thier way and adding stuff just to add it and tack on money to the overall cost. who the hell really cares?
