That's not too bad ... certainly more than I'd expected!

My 500GB HD Panasonic PVR hold a mere 75hrs by default which I think
records the data stream as transmitted. If you aren't all that fussed
about quality it'll stored a silly amount, 2,000+ hours springs to
mind but that would probably be worse than VHS...

HD needs approx 4 times more space than FreeView SD, IIRC.
