Title: Tivo is obtrusive and a waste
Product review: Tivo is a pain in the a**. If you want someone picking shows for you, get it. Personally, I don't like shows like MacGyver or In the Heat of the Night, programs that it has been recording at random. I finally turned that feature off. My guess is that its reporting back what our viewing habits are by random sampling.The lifetime service agreement is pretty pricey when you consider that it only applies to the life of the receiver. Do you plan on getting HDTV in the future? [...]DirecTv HDTV tuner.Its a shame they don't make an integrated PVR that doesn't require a service agreement that bleeds you like Tivo or Microsoft does. Some people really enjoy the features on Tivo. [...]And what happens when Tivo goes out of business like RePlay did?
