Re: yay!
said by bicker  :So, why not just NOT SUBSCRIBE TO IT? This is only allowing it to be offered, it isn't REQUIRING YOU TO GET IT. The problem is that if it catches on, then regular standalone DVRs may die off.
Unless of course the specter preventing FFing rears its ugly head before actual standalone DVRs die off. That may spook some people into shying away from the network DVR. |

So, in other words, if lots of customers like this option better, then other options may not be offered as much. Sorry, I cannot get too concerned about that. Let's respect our fellows enough to let them decide what's best for them, instead of wishing to withhold from them the options that they themselves my prefer. |

It's not a matter of what's best for them. It's a matter of who wins the marketing wars. |
