| Parent's seem to like TiVo My parents just recently bought Tivo from costco for 100 bucks with the rebate and then paid 300 for the life time subscription. A few weeks before this they were notified by our cable company that sometime in 2005 that they will offer DVR service. I told them but they didn't seem to care. DVR from our cable company for just a few bucks more!!! Another dumb thing is that my step dad now wants to burn his tivo things to DVD. He should have just got a tivo from panasonic/sony with built in dvd-burner. Now I'm going to have to set it up through the network and mess with it to burn with my pc.
I think TiVo is dead. Cable/Dish companies are offering DVR service for cheaper.
BTW, how are the cable/dish DVR services? TiVo has a good menu and a lot of neat options, like remote scheduling and you can hook it up to your network etc.
Thanks! |
