Compare and contrast : Product Overview[Kaleidescape ]
Comprised of MediaServers and MediaDecks , each MediaDeck portion can output to your television set and border sound system and let in wired and wireless Ethernet connection . While both the interface and the design of the unit itself seem to blench in unmediated equivalence with the Kaleidescape , the cost is “ only ” $ 8,895 for roughly 40 movies . Each additional elbow room will be you $ 895 but includes another remote , and you’re able to increase its capacity for the Leontyne Price of $ 695/250 GB . equate this to Kaleidescape ’s infrastructure system- $ 27,000 for 170 moving picture , and it might take the sting out .
Of some interest is the fact that the MediaMax does n’t let in a descrambler as does the Kaleidescape , but instead remind you to show your ownership of the rip DVD after a few workweek . I can envisage this convey a certain grade of aggravator with it , but I ’m not sure it ’s worth the $ 15,000 or so insurance premium to ambush that .
