While you don't have HD right now that will be changing fast with the Digital TV transition. I have a standard series 2 TiVo and I hope to be getting one of the new HD TiVo's in the near future. Even if you are only recording SD (standard def)TV you will able to keep more shows on the TiVo hard drive as SD takes up less space. The subscriptions can be transferred to a new unit at the time of purchase. More hard drive space is always good with video the new HD TiVo's allow you to also add a hard drive by plugging it in the back of the unit.

It sounds like Tivo is the way to go for us, rather than Insight's DVR or Apple TV. Now I just have to decide which box to buy: $150 vs. $300 ordered from Tivo. Will the less expensive box be obsolete sooner? We don't have an HD TV at this point, but no doubt will have to get one down the road. And if I go with the lifetime subscription, will it not last as long with the $150 box? Questions, questions ... Thanks again, Wendi _______________________________________________ The next Louisville Computer Society meeting will be September 23 at MacAuthority, 128 Breckinridge Lane.
