So where can I buy a WD Elements Play? I can’t find one at Best Buy and the WD Store link on this page is broken and doesn’t take you to a page where you can buy one. Just curious.
You can’t, at least retail. It’s only available in various international markets.
The WDTV Live Hub is a better alternative, anyway, and probably less expensive…
I actually didn’t want to get the LiveHub because it’s got all that stupid internet ■■■■ on it. Do I really need to update my FB stauts from my boobtube. Or tweet all the twits who don’t have lives to tell them that I don’t have one either and that I’m gonna watch a movie. Or Netflix; they may have a great product, but I don’t like them because their CEO is a complete juicebag so I refuse to let him have any of my hard earned money. ETC, ETC, ETC … All I want is to take the content I have on my computer (that has been purchased, I’m not a pirate) and store it on some device that plugs into my TV so I can access it where I’m gonna watch it. I don’t need/want to set my computer up as a media server, beam the content into the ether, and have it materialize at a reciever next to my TV. I just want a hard drive full of content. Done! No bells, no whistles. The WD Elements Play seemed to be the product that matched what I want to do best.
… while there’s no all-in-one solution that matches that exactly, a WDTV Live (or Live+) plus an inexpensive portable HD would certainly do the job…
Please don’t buy it!
I you want I’ll give you mine, just to you to realize how bad it is!!!
WD TV Live is a much better solution, and cheaper…
