The PlayerVenice-V38HD Dvix Box stands out from the crowd since it comes with a built-in DVD player, allowing you to rip content from both DVDs and CDs. Of course, you would only make legal backups of things that you actually own.

Some other features of the PlayerVenice-V38HD Dvix Box include an HDMI output, support for all the popular video formats, basic NAS, UPNP and FTP server capabilities courtesy of an Ethernet port. Nothing about price or availability just yet.
