Fact is, only these devices need a separate power brick so I\'m not worried about "too many".
TV\'s - will always have self contained power supply units, since they generate plenty of heat anyways, and are large enough to acomodate them. DVD/CD/Media players will always have them integrated because these are low-power units. Amps and preamps are big-draw, but then again the whole point of these units is to amp the power so again, they integrate.
Really, it\'s only gaming systems that will have to have separate power supplies, and that\'s because they are the same as a dedicated PC - but smaller, running in a confined space for long periods of time. Makes sense for these units to have a power brick separate. For me, the very bottom of my electronics \'rack\' to the right of my TV is where all transformers/adapters/power units go, so you don\'t see them unless you go looking. With a few minutes any decent setup can hide it\'s wires/cords from most viewing angles.
