MC edition usually is pretty cool as long as your hardware components are compatible with the OS. I forget what the requirements are, but its a nice feature if you can set it up correctly. The new additions i think is the addition of the radio feature, Itunes buying ability, and uhhh... hmm.. i thin kthats about it. Other than that, if you can get the 2005 editiion for cheap, go for it, make sure you have a remote or something so you can utilize the Media Center navigation screen.
