Okay, my schedule has me missing some great stuff on the History International channel, SciFi, DIY, and Discovery.
I have one friend who's an "early adopter". He's had TiVo for nearly 8 years, or as long as they've been around. He's souped it up with some monster-sized HDD, and says he would never go back to regular TV.
So, I'm thinking about buying a TiVo unit. Besides the unit, what ongoing costs are involved? Anyone own one? What's been your experience? Are there better options? I've called my local (Charter) cable, and they offer V E R Y limited "on-demand" service, none of the stuff I would really want to record. Worthless to me.
Any thoughts?
