I must admit that since I got a (quite cheap) smart TV I have not watched very 
much live TV, or gone to my old TV recordings/downloads or played any of my 
DVDs.

I don't even subscribe to any pay TV services - I spend most of my viewing time 
with SBS On-demand (great European TV series) and iView (but getting harder to 
find good stuff on iView)

However, since I do have an attached USB HD, I can also pause or record live TV.

Of course my viewing tastes are probably not mainstream - for example, I have 
no interest in TV sport.

It seems to me that conventional TV (watching live TV) and even recording live 
TV for later viewing will soon go the way of letters with stamps on them - a 
nostalgic (or not so nostalgic) memory for us oldies  ;o)

I guess time will tell.


Cheers
 

Neil

Subject: Re: EyeTV device replacement

    Thanks Walter
    
    I will get in touch with Daniel.
    
    The Geniatech website seems to be blocked for on-line sales.  Possibly only 
open to EU countries?
    
    Have to dust off the set top box and DVD burner!
    
    Cheers
    Alan

EyeTV was still owned by Elgato. That was much much cheaper, it was a Hybrid 
type with 2 separate coaxial inputs.
