Its what you plug your cable internet into for playing online. With the old ps2 you had to buy the network card. Im not sure why they call it ethernet.

 i bought one after realizing the PS2 only played about half of my...backed-up movies. i got mine the first day they came out though - i figured the newer PS2's would play 'em better.

yeah but I don't need more friggen wires to hook up. My freind got a later PS2 and has never had a DVD problem. I got mine as a GT3 combo. It won't play the best half of "Gone in 60 seconds" or 3/4's of " The Matrix"

I prefer XBox's when it comes to playing DVD's. XBMC is awesome.

I have both an XBox and a PS2 and I prefer a DVD deck for playing movies.

Luckily I bought a TV with enough inputs - I haven't looked recently but a year ago there were no component video switch boxes.

I haven't seen one either. The best I've found is an S-Video switch box.

Both my PS2 and XBox are connected to my TV via component AV packs - it's the only way to use progressive scan modes.

consoles as dvd players
I have a buddy who burns a lot of his own DVD's. His XBox plays anything he has ever thrown at it. If I could only have one component to attach to my TV, the Xbox would be it. But then the XBox won't be playing GT4 any time soon.
Personally I believe in dedicated players if wires are not a problem. I just got a Phillips DVP and it is the best $69 I ever spent. It plays everything: DVD, DVD+R, DVD-R, DVD+RW, DVD-RW, MP3, MP4, CD-R, CD-RW, VCD, SVCD, DIVX 3x/4x/5x, AVI, MPEG2...etc. Anything I can buy, copy, download or burn. An amazing player! Johnny
