Yup, it sucks...

However, in terms of the DVR, Directivo is the best out there. Especially when you compare them to the Comcast DVR and Dish DVR. Course, the Dish DVR is getting better with each new release.

Personally, I will stick with the neutered DirecTivo than go with a standalone Tivo or the Comcast DVR. Just my opinion.

Yeah, hard to beat getting the bits from the satellite direct to hard drive.

And you can somewhat "un-neuter" it if you want.

Yeah if you have the non R10 units then you can enable full functionality.. I have one HDVR2 but also a R10.. so MRV is out of the window.

I loved upgrading my drive to 216 hours of recording time on my Directivo.
