[quote SDGuy]I still get crap from my friends over owning a Panasonic DVR recorder, instead of subscribing to Tivo or ReplayTV like they do. I ask them how they archive what they've recorded onto DVD, and it seems to involve a long, drawn out process involving a PC. Yeah - much easier than just dubbing it using one box.
I don't "subscribe" to TiVo, I own it (guess they've changed the deal now, but not my problem). I added a 250GB HDD to the 80GB drive it came with, and now I don't need to archive anything. There will never, ever be enough shows broadcast that are worth keeping to fill the 250GB drive... and there's still the 80GB drive to capture the daily crap I'll need to forget by next week.
