LaCie has just announced an economic way to add media player functionality to existing storage devices. The LaCinema Classic Bridge works with numerous video, music and photo formats, including MPEG4, MP3 and JPEG as well as HD-JPEG for superior viewing of images over HDMI output.

All you have to do is simply connect the Classic Bridge to a desired TV, add a storage device, and play libraries of movies, music, and photos in flawless 1080p HD resolution.

There are 2 options to make this work. One allows users to connect an external USB drive to the front of the storage device for easy access, while the other one allows users to easily insert an internal hard disk directly into the storage device for a clean, fully integrated set-up. Also, you can opt to use both for expanded capacity.

The LaCinema Classic Bridge is available now starting at $99.99 through the LaCie Online Store or LaCie Resellers.
