Well, I definatley wouldn't trade my ps3's that has BC, that would be a really bad idea... But there are a few features that the new one has that I'm looking forward too, and is worth $50 + 2 games I never play anymore (To me).

1. Bravia Sync... can control the ps3 via universal remote.
2. Quiter - my PS3 fan gets pretty noisy
3. Power Consumption - not going to make a huge difference but every bit helps.
4. Bigger HD - not a huge deal but hey, its bigger
5. Extends the warrenty - mine is out, so getting a new one would give me another warrenty
6. Bitstreaming - not a huge deal since the other can decode to PCM, but its "nice to have"
7. I'm a sucker for new gadgets

I can see why some people would think its a waste, but for me it'd be worth it ASSUMING they will take the one that isn't BC. Plus I've already imported all my RB songs into RB2, so thats like not even trading in a game.
