RE: [Sndbox] Has Oprah Lost Her Bounce?

You aren't getting it so I'll type slower.  <g> You are not paying to use the unit.  You are paying to use the *SERVICE*.  You are paying for the convenience of the TIVO (or Replay) company keeping track of all the schedules, etc.   With your VCR, you have to remember when a show comes on to set it, and if the network changes the time you are out of luck.  That's what you pay for.   Charles Mims http://www.the-sandbox.org     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Greg Hopper Sent: Sunday, October 05, 2003 9:48 PM To: The Sandbox Discussion List Subject: Re: [Sndbox] Has Oprah Lost Her Bounce? Yeah but if you have already bought the unit, your paying to record on something you already own.....that's like paying for the video, then paying for it again when you use it.....lol   Now if your renting the unit, I can see it.....but if it's paid for? Double gougeing if you ask me....maybe worth it for what it does, but still seems like their  getting you twice. lol ----- Original Message ----- From: Angela To: The Sandbox Discussion List Sent: Sunday, October 05, 2003 5:47 PM Subject: RE: [Sndbox] Has Oprah Lost Her Bounce? Well actually you can always pause whether you pay for it or not. You can pause something for up to 30 minutes on ours then fast forward through the commercials. It just gets on my nerves though that you have to pay to record, but I guess if you think about it, even with a VCR you are paying for the tapes you record on, but not always do you spend $5 a month on tapes
