Product review: I have been using a VCR for many many years and have always been totally in control of what I record and it doesn't cost anything beyond the initial purchase.The Replay and Tivo are nothing but a VCR with a hard drive instead of a tape as the recording medium.Why does anybody pay to use something they already own? The production cost of a DVR should not be much more, if any, than a VCR, so why the extra cost just to use it?These units are the biggest scam on the public since the pet rock!

Review title: Agatha Raisin ann the Witch of Wyckhadden Product review: I have read all of the Agatha Raisin books and I bought this one with the expectation of enjoyment. I found that the humor in this book has been degraded into the school of --how many ways can Agatha be demeaned and hurt. Before I buy another book in this series I will make sure that I look briefly to make sure that is comes back up tp the level of the previos books.

Question: You are considering whether to buy a product. You look at the reviews. Would the following review decrease or increase the chances of you buying the product? Review title: An Honest Look at the Greyhound Industry Product review: I went to a dog track one time on vacation, and have wanted to go back to one since. And while I am very aware of the issues with animal use, and the thousands of retired greyhounds that need homes; I was entertained, and had an appreciation for the animal I didn't have before I went. Similar to my experiences at horsetracks. This book is a genuine down the middle look at the sport that I really don't think you have unless you experience it in some way. He humorously illustrates his dive into the deep end of the sport, and it is a good read and fix for someone with a casual interest in the sport. On occassion the author's ego gets in the way of a very entertaining tale, but it can be overlooked.
