DVD quality on XBOX

Now that I've a Xbox, I'm thinking of buying the DVD controller as a temporary solution.

Now I wonder, how is the image/audio quality when you play DVD's on the Xbox?

I used it for over a year and never had an issue. The picture quality is on par or better with a entry level dvd player IMO. You can use an optical out for sound and it sounds great. The only thing that concerned me was wear on the system so I went out and bought a standalone.

Thanks for your input! :) I went and bought one today. The wear won't be (hopefully) a problem, since I will only use the Xbox as DVD player as temporary solution until I buy a home theater system and that will be in a shorter time than the problem- free year you had with it, so I'll hope I won't experience any wear related problems.

Once again, thanks! :)
