Anwilli-
I'm not a slave to it by any means. I have two 80 hour TiVos. The one in my office I use much more than the downstairs one. That one is for the shows that the Wife and I watch together. The one upstairs is for my stories and shows that he won't watch like Stargate and BSG and Six Degrees and such.
What ends up happening is I watch a little here and there and then one day when I don't feel like getting out of bed, I just watch everything on it and clear it off. I never feel obligated to watch what I record, so...

How much does that serivce cost? It's like $13/mo for the first one and $7/mo for the second. No more expensive than having a DVR from Comcast.

I'm gettin rid of tivo, I hate him. I also got rid of my tv. I hate him. I Just ordered a HDTV Tuner card for my comptuer. Why pay someone when you can do it for free.. AND have 1TB of space to store shows on. =p So you're dumping TiVo after years of a relationship and getting a younger, smarter, slicker TV system??? If I had a terrabyte of storage space, I'd do that, too, but I only have about 300 gigs... And how do you keep TV with all that porn? LOL

The card I ordered is OTA and Analog only =p which suites me just fine. I download all the other things =)

Nice, Justin is finally seeing how my setup is the best. I also ordered that same HDTV card for my Media Center computer and will be able to record most of my shows in HD goodness.

Rescue Me is indeed an awesome show, forget who mentioned it, however it is also a summer show, much to my dismay (cause it just finished). Sheila's such a crazy bitch.
Only really watching House (though I only saw the first episode of this season, my family didn't tivo the second, think I have the 3rd to now tivo'd) and the best show currently on television, Battlestar Galactica.

Forget every good thing I've said about RCN's DVR - I tried to watch something I saved last night for the first time since they updated my system (in which they deleted everything I had recorded - including the Tony Awards with Harry Connick Jr - tear!) and while everything appeared to be recorded, I couldn't watch anything.
Then I sat on hold with customer service for an HOUR before hanging up and going to sleep, without watching my shows.
So if anyone else has the same DVR and knows how to fix this, please let me know!

I still did not get the chance to watch it but I was talking with my brother last night and apparently there are two brothers on Heroes named Nathan and Peter and they can fly and that's freakin awesome
(for those of you who don't know Sarah and I have an older brother named Nathan and it's a little ironic that he is a pilot)

How dare you dash my dreams like that
And yes I will fly, but that will be when Nate comes up to visit and we go rent a plane for an hour or something.
