Trust me, my movies are from "other" sources, but I'm picky about quality, so either I'll mount the movie as an ISO or just burn it to disc. 7TB fills up so quickly with 45GB movies...
XMBC + WMC sounds interesting - I never looked that hard into it as I have an Apple TV for streaming (or the 360's, though they are only 720p for non-MS apps).
