I have a Dish Network PVR and it's great. You don't get recommendations, but that's apparently a good thing. There is also code on the internet for converting an old PC into a DVR. You have to replace windows with linux and install a video card, audio cards and a larger hard drive. But it supposedly works better than what's out there now.

I know this is an old thread, but SpongeBob is popular with stoners, not homosexuals.

I've been a tivo user for a few years. I've never encountered anything close to these types of problems.
I wil admit though since my OS has been upgraded to the latest version (4.0 I think), suggeston recording has been much more agressive.
Oh and customize your tivo to be able to record up to 200 hours - I don't watch muct TV but it's badass having 'The good, the Bad, & The Ugly,' 'Once Upon a Time in the West,' and 'Godfather Saga' 'ready to go' at any time, and still have plenty of room to record your shows!

I'm a fan of "Antiques Road Show" would that mark me as Gay? As gay as if you bought a bunch of Barbra Streisand CDs.

I have no need of TiVo, but I do have a controler for it. The controler is made of pretty Stainless Steel, and comes in .38 special, or .357.

I turned off the Tivo recommendations. They were all lame and I was having to spend time deleting them. It's very simple to do...

Does one have to have cable tv to use these products or is it over the internet. I have cable internet but no tv.
