Just wondering, does people here consider PS3 as a computer playback device or a dedicated player(more or less)?
I personally think of it as a computer playback device and it worked mostly fine except for the interference it puts out to devices close by. It is a nice option for people who want to pull music from their server, play from HDD (it seem to allow uncompress PCM storage if you pull it off a server), or for those who want to play SACD/Blu-Ray. It works either way, and even downconverts SACD to high bit rate PCM for external DAC to decode.
And it is a whole lot cheaper than computers.
With that said, I still drop my red-book CDs onto my CDP-X5000, yes it is a lot more fun seeing your disc spin through the clear top.
