Most all of your responses to TV programming would improve with a DVR.
Until you let "it" do the hunting you really don't know what you are
missing.
I have heard all of you responses time and again from those that "thought"
the same way. Now they actually like watching the TV. LOL


This is the problem that TiVo has had from the beginning. It is very
difficult
to explain that TiVo (or DVR's) make a fundamental change in a viewer's
relationship with television. I've had a TiVo since 2001 and would never
go
back to regular TV.


That is about when we got out first TiVO also, the first DirecTV DVR's were
2 tuner TiVo's

And then we switched to HD and the new DirecTV DVR's were no longer TiVo
units and the reliability went out the door. Almost 4 years later they have
made enough software upgrades to the DVR that it is tolerable.
