Nice, thanks for the specs there. I guess I was lulled into thinking the Divx player might have more capacity to deliver quality, but maybe that's more of an audio thing, which is a bit of a different animal.

All your audio is going to be stereo MP3 or AAC. Its not like you can really expect too much from it. Even if you get a 5.1 rip in a MKV or OGM file or something its still most likely going to be AAC encoded (compressed).
Bluray (BD as in Bluray Disk) uses uncompressed audio. Same with DVD.

Torrents are easy as shit! I'm a downloading fool! I don't watch them on my comp anymore ever since I got my PS3. I upload them all onto my 1TB external HD and play them through the PS3. So far I have 305GB +/- 20GB of movies.
Around 350 Regular movies and 15 BRRips.
I have recently just started ripping my own movies to have digital copy's of them. I have over 300 discs, this may take awhile lol.
But yeah VLC is where it's at. Plus you can add the .srt subtitles to the movie. I don't think you can do that with WMP, Winamp... etc

VLC is great for retards who have no idea how to setup a proper system, with decent sound and video codecs.
If you know what you're doing, you'll obtain the correct codecs and use them for viewing within Media Player Classic. Not only is this much less resource hungry than choosing the VLC route, you'll be able to use filters such as Reclock (which eliminates any telecine judder created by watching PAL vids on NTSC hardware or vice versa) which VLC will not allow you to do.
