Tivo

Does anyone have a TiVO? Do you like it? Would you recommend it?

Got it.

See if your cable provider can make you a deal. TIVO has limitations. A DVR is a DVR. I have a nice VCR you can buy....

kids these days with your loud rap music and low cars.

Haha.

Hotel, I don't have Tivo specifically, but I do have a DVR through Charter. I like it, you can set it to record series or individual shows as well as the whole pause/rewind of live TV. You can fast forward through commercials if your behind the live feed but not ahead of it. Ours lets us record 2 channels at a time either to the memory or just for instant rewind.

Dvr is great way to go.
VCR... Isn't that what old people use to watch they're weddings with?

I've had both a normal DVR, and Tivo. They really are great. With tivo, there are a lot more features that not everyone will use, but the ability to pause and rewind live TV, as well as record and save TV shows and movies from any channel is.. well, I can't imagine life without it.

Grrr... my parents are finally getting a DVR system (AT&T U-verse) and upgrading to 12 mb/sec... from 1.5 mb/sec.

I had one of the early tivos and loved it. Buddy has the new one and it's awesome too. Nice thing is he moves a lot and can just take it with him. Works with any cable system and he doesn't have to pay for premium cable packages or rent a DVR thru cable company.

DVR is fantastic... that +netflix is pretty much ideal
