Pros A lot of memory, ability to toggle programs, the TiVo service is solid.
Cons Not HD compatible
Recommended it? No

The TiVo R54080 80-hour DVR is a pretty good machine for recording digital cable. We bought one a few months ago, and it worked really well for us. We had an older model that only held 40 hours of programming, which was not enough for two busy people who can't always stay on top of what we have... Read full review »

Pros Watch show from beginning while its being recording, music & photos on displayed on TV
Cons Programming sometimes misses beginning or end of shows. $13 per month service fee.
Recommended it? Yes

Back in January 2006, I finally decided get my first ever DVR and as a DirecTV customer took advantage of the rebate offer to basically get a free R15 unit.

Now, I've never had a DVR before and not biased due to previous experience (i.e. TiVo). Overall, I really enjoy the benefits of... Read full review »
