“Using MediaMax MediaDeck Set-top Players, users in any room can instantly watch any DVD movie stored on the Media Server’s hard drive(s). Axonix maintains that the system allows users to “listen to their favorite music or an Internet radio program, watch recorded TV shows, show-off family movies or photo albums, email, and surf the Web.” Media is accessed via the included hand-held wireless remote control or with other home remote controllers. The MediaMax system is one of the most expandable systems available with “unlimited” media storage capacity and the ability to provide “simultaneous access to any movie, song or other media, anytime” in up to 30 rooms. “
You can load movies onto the media server, but it sounds like you must wait 8-weeks after loading the movie before you can play it back to “confirm” that you actually own the movie.
A one-room MediaMax system capable of storing an average of 40 DVD movies and “hundreds of music CDs, MP3s, photos and other media” has a retail price starting at $8,895. 250GB MediaDrive modules for storing an additional 40 movies are available for $695 each. External MediaStore Firewire add-on storage devices range in capacity from 250GB to 2 TeraBytes and are priced from $1,495 to $8,995. MediaDeck Set-top Players with an included wireless remote control cost $895 each.
