I am not very tech savvy and up on the latest stuff. I have had bad luck
with VCRs lately, and am too cheap to pay the monthly Tivo fee. Do DVD
recorders allow a DVD to be re-written over and over like a video tape?
Are they are viable replacement for a VCR?

Thanks for any help.


Probably but a unit with a hard drive would be a big improvement. Been using
computers with tuner cards for ~10 years. Comparing a DVR to a VCR or
recording to a disc is like comparing a typewriter to a word processor. Once
you've paused live TV there's no going back.

I agree about the fee though.
