I’m with Ian and Andrew, after reading the PS3 article, i would much rather have a PS3 for media streaming. Another benefit is that games developed for the PS3 are much smoother and in my opinion of a higher quality quality.

The one plus on the side of the 360 is the ability to stream Netflix, which for some people is pretty big.

I’m definitely sold on using the PS3 as a media server too!

I have found the Xbox 360 more difficult to use as a media server over the PS3. The PS3 will play DivX and Xvid movies by default and stream them from the PC. The Xbox 360 won’t as far as I can tell (at least I cannot get it to work). A good software program to download, and which is free which will let you stream music, movies, Hulu/YouTube etc is Tversity.
