I'm sure when DVD first came out nobody ever considered that people could, or would want to, load them onto hard drives. I love having my DVDs loaded onto the server, and if I had more money I might have one of the many systems that you can buy specifically for this, which are simple to use, do not involve an HTPC, and are not illegal. The biggest thing holding Blu-ray servers back now is that fact that it isn't legal yet to make a copy of a blu-ray disc, but I know the company I work with, Kaleidescape, is just about ready to implement Blu-ray ripping when it does.
My system using XBMC is much cheaper and I love being able to put all the cases away, and sort the movies in a much easier way. I can understand that some people like having their movie cases out on display, or maybe like the tangiblity, but if you like having the physical medium that's fine, it doesn't mean that there aren't people out there that would want to browse their movies on the TV, or that they are wrong for wanting that.
