Heatherg, Wanted to check in with you and thank you for coming to my defense back in that other thread. I was a little overwhelmed and disturbed by the response, and didn't really trust myself to respond in a graceful way.
Re: TiVo.
Your satellite company may have its own DVR and they are CHEAP. I just got one two weeks ago for $4 a month at 50% off for 6 months. AWESOME. I can watch a 1 hour show in about 40 minutes. Also, you can watch a show recorded last hour while a new one is taping. I was watching and fast forwarding through commercials on Lost while Invasion was being recorded. I watched to two shows in less than 1:30. Very cool.
