Tivo

WadeJ:
We can't live without it now :)

I'm thinking about getting another one for upstairs lol

Deadman:
I'm waiting for Comcast to integrate the Tivo software into their DVR boxes, right now it's just Comcast DVR(which I hear isn't too spectacular). They signed a deal to put it on last year, and it is supposed to be done sometime this year. I can't use a regular Tivo box because of HDTV, they only offer HDTV boxes for satelite.

WadeJ:
Comcast DVR's SUCK.  Everybody I know that "HAD" one hated it and no longer has it.  They are junk.

Ironically, they are switching back to Tivo.  DirecTV already has HD Tivo's but they will not support the rollout of MPEG4 local channels.  You will have to go with the DirecTV branded DVR's for HD locals but they are actually supposed to be decent.

Deadman:
Ya, the only way I could get a DVR at the moment would be through Comcast unless I switch to satelite, or drop my HDTV package. I'd rather just wait untill they intigrate Tivo into it.
But, if Verizon offers their TV package here when they are done stringing the fiber lines, I'd surely switch.

stew560:
Love both my TiVo's! Right now I can only extract video from my Series1 (Old!) using TyTool. Also TiVoWeb lets me acces it online. Both these products require you to hack your TiVo.

The Series2 TiVo's have Tivo Desktop which will extract the video and allow you to burn to DVD.
