QUESTION 6: SHARING MEDIA

Do I want to share media, between my digital devices, and display them on my TV with my console?

This is not a super important thing to most people however still an important consideration.

The Wii has an SD card slot for extra memory. You can also put an SD card from your digital camera (if indeed your camera uses an SD card) and view them on your Wii. You can also play with the pictures by using an editor built-in to the Wii.

The XBOX 360 is more of a media center as it can actually pull media directly from your computer using Microsoft's Zune software or if you have a Media Center PC. You can also plug in almost anything via USB to your 360 to play music and/or movies. The 360 can also play CDs so you can listen to music directly or import them onto your 360 for listening to whenever you want

The PS3 has a media card reader that reads almost every flash card known to man. It can display pictures, play movies, and play music. Similar to the 360, the PS3 can also play CDs and copy them to it's internal hard drive, however it does not import them as a proprietary format. Instead it will import as AAC or MP3.
