I have a Sony HD tuner/DVR. I love it and I love that I don't pay a subscription to Tivo. It has a few kinks, but my favorite shows are in HD and they are free. But now they seem to be pulled from the market.
When this one dies, which I hope is a long way, will I be able to buy something similar.
And no, I don't have or want cable/satellite. Over-the-air free, baby!

Hi Charles,
All the major cable companies offer DVRs but they are getting scarce as stand alone units. Only a few are left now and they may disappear before your Sony kicks the bucket.
I prefer TiVO but I have lifetime subscriptions so have already paid my dues.
You can operate a TiVO without a subscription. You record by channel number, start time, stop time like the old VHS systems did.
Hopefully your Sony will last a long time.

definite, you will could order a programming equipment that contains HD channels from Comcast so as watch HD channels. you will could get a million or 2 cable taking part in cards from Comcast with a view to view any digitally encrypted channels. extra then probable, all digital channels on Comcast would be encrypted. Any analog channels will are available in with none cable card. each and each cable card can fee unfastened to approximately $4.00/mo reckoning on Comcasts expenses.

You can always make your own.
PC+TV Tuner (even HD)+Windows Media OS (or Vista Premium now)
Microsoft provides an on-line TV Guide.
