i've read rpi works xbmc before started thought i'd ask drawbacks or gotchas might not anticipating.
if want use pi media center, you'll want run 1 of distros dedicated this, i.e. raspbmc, xbian or openelec.
make sure have power supply - lot of problems caused running pi under-spec psu.
if use usb peripherals, connect them powered hub.
if use hdd format ext4 [not ntfs].
if play content on network share, nfs performs better smb.
playing hd content on wifi marginal - use wired ethernet if can.
choose xbmc skin recommended pi. skins resource hungry.
