Am considering buying XP Media Center OS today- any thoughts?

I eventually want to get into HD tv and recording my TV shows and messing about with downloaded songs and stuff, so am thinking that Media Center is the way to go.

What say you?

If you're already running XP, I wouldn't purchase media center...

I'm not. It's for a brand new build.

At least make sure it comes with a free Vista upgrade. There is no predicting how DRM will effect any of this in the future.
