I hate to say it, but a PS3 isn't too much more than the average bluray player. Even if you don't game on it, you'll get your money's worth out of it. Just buy the cheap one. It's a bluray player, media center, you can partition the hard drive and install a second operating system and use it as a computer, you can stream music, videos, and pictures off your computer. The possibilities are endless, even if you don't play games with it.
