Trailer Addict, “Your Daily Dose of Hi-Def Movie Trailers,” is an entire site dedicated the best eight minutes of any movie-going experience. In addition to recent trailers, the site also offers an immensely-comprehensive selection of trailers from years past. I did a search for Se7en (my personal favorite movie of all time) from 1995 and found the following trailer:

As you can see from the above example, Trailer Addict, much like Hulu, offers the ability to embed its content into your own personal site and even provides you four different sizes from which to choose.

Apple Trailers, for about a decade or more, has always been a reliable site through which to find and view the latest trailers from major and independent studios alike. In addition to consistently being updated throughout a week’s time, the site also offers the viewer a multitude of options for trailer-watchin’. You’ve got three options for high-definition (480p, 720p and 1080p) and three options for standard trailers (a.k.a. “low-def”) for the bandwidth-conscious (small, medium and large.) My only gripe with Apple’s Trailer site lies with its requirement of the QuickTime plugin. I honestly don’t know that I’d ever have a need for this plugin if it weren’t for Apple’s trailer site. QuickTime, in my humble opinion, is horrifically bloated and I tend to avoid it at all costs. But those HD trailers are certainly glorious, though…

Are there other sites out there on the Interwebs through which you prefer to find trailers? Let us know by dropping us a line in the comments. In the meantime, check out the original “trailer” (if you want to call it that) for the 1989, Tim Burton-directed Batman.

Hey, Microsoft couldn’t let Google steal all the headlines for an entire week, right? (See “Chrome.”) What better way to steal some than to drop the price of one of their most popular hardware releases ever? Effective September 5th, the Xbox 360 Arcade will be available for $199, the 360 console for $299 and the 360 Elite for $399. Here’s some details from the official press release:

Imagine if friends and families had the ability to instantly watch movies from Netflix, live out their musical fantasies through “Rock Band 2″ and “Lips”, star in their own Hollywood classics with “You’re in the Movies,” or have the power to never miss the latest episode of “Heroes” – all from one device, starting at $199. That device is Xbox 360, and Microsoft Corp. today announced it will offer the gaming and entertainment console, which offers the leading Xbox LIVE service, at a new low price in the United States.

For the former, you can check out MP3Tunes, Musana or TunesBag. (And I’m sure there’s more out there.) These services allow you to upload tracks (MP3s and WMAs, typically) from your existing collection without having to worry about whether or not your home PC is connected to the Internet.

MP3Tunes currently grants you 2 GB of storage on free accounts. Upgrades are available and are pretty cheap. The next available plan offers you about 50 GB of space for $4.95/mo or $39.95/yr. One additional benefit of signing up with a premium plan is the ability you’ll receive to listen to your tracks via a selection of Locker-enabled devices (including mobile phones) which means that you don’t even need a computer to listen to the tracks you’ve collected at home. Once you have your plan, simply grab the company’s LockerSync software to upload your tracks.

Next up is musana. In my rather humble opinion, musana is the weakest of the bunch… at least for now. The site currently does not offer an uploader (not that we could find, anyway) available for use which means you’re going to have to use your browser’s file select option to upload your tracks. Once you have uploaded some tracks, the player’s interface is “neat-looking” but not as intuitive as it should be. (Not bad, mind you, just not great.)

Granted, the site is still in “private beta” so things might improve. Although, the last post to the company’s official blog was back in February ‘08. That said, I wanted to include the site as an option for music lovers on-the-go but don’t be surprised if musana ends up in the deadpool.

Finally, in the “upload-&-listen” cateogry, we have tunesBag. While tunesBag states that they currently allow for unlimited uploading via the tunesBag uploader application, you’ll need to contact them directly if you wish you upload more than 5-7 GB of music.

Your Best Bet Overall, Though…

If you’ve got a broadband connection at home, your PC is always on and you really want to minimize the amount of effort required to get your collection accessible from any computer you might be at, you may want to take a look at the following two free, albeit similar, services.

First up is JukeFly. With JukeFly, you sign up for an account, download the “server” application, point it to your music collection and then, well, nothing. Your music collection is instantly accessible from wherever you can hit jukefly.com in a desktop Web browser. The interface (shown below) is a little cartoonish (it’s entirely Flash-based) but it allows you to do everything you might normally do from iTunes or Windows Media Player: create new playlists, shuffle, search, rate songs, etc.

There’s even some social networking functionality built-in. You can share your collection with others, comment on songs or view other users’ comments on the same song and/or artist, find lyrics (if available,) and even connect to your last.fm account. It’s a pain-free way to access your favorite tunes on the road.

Our favorite pick…

The second and final option we’ll be covering here is Orb. Orb provides you with the same option as JukeFly (being able to access your music collection on the road without having to upload your entire catalog) but takes it a step further; thus making it our favorite choice overall.

In addition to being able to access your tunes (in a brilliant, iTunes-esque Web interface, by the way,) Orb also provides you with the option to browse your home videos, pictures and documents from a remote machine.
