Xbox 360 vs PS3...what to do

After talking with a friend who has an Xbox 360, and is an unapologetic Microsoft fanboy, I am again on the fence between the PS3 and the Xbox 360. I guess it all comes down to the pluses and minuses.

PS3 Pluses:
-Comes standard with Blu-ray
-Comes with a larger hard drive
-Can use a PSP to get your media anywhere

PS3 Minuses
-Limited game titles

Xbox Pluses:
-Online gaming superior
-More title available
-Xbox live
-Media Center interface seems better (my opinion)

Xbox 360 Minuses
-HD DVD sold as a separate accessory
-Smaller hard drive


What else can be added to this list? Also, what I want to know is why no one is talking about the media center capabilities of these machines? Probably because their are more gamers than media guys like me!

Is PS3 the way to go for on-line movies?

DVD is dead. Blu-ray, hd-dvd, it's all a waste of time. While static media has its place, downloading movies is the way it will be done in the future. You can do it with appleTV, Comcast, FIOS, Netflix, and Xbox360. Sony will surely do it with PS3 as well.

So what does this mean for the content you can get? Sony as a content distributor may have a hard time making deals with Disney, or Paramount because they are competitors. Does this mean that Apple and Microsoft are in the right place because they are content provider neutral?
