at the same price is better to have it at home and be able to add a bigger disk to it as well.
If offered at same price, I can't see any incentive for customers to switch from their local DVR to a remote DVR service that is inherently less responsive to remote control actions. And if a node gets overloaded, you may not even be able to watch your recorded show when you want to.

The latency should be very similar if not identical to that you see with VOD services. It takes a second or two for a fast forward or reverse to start after pressing the remote button. Same thing with a pause and restart. Also there is no 30 sec skip available like with the local DVR to quickly go thru commercials.

In fact that brings up a possible issue - will they let you FF thru commercials or not?
