The DVR King of all DVRs : TiVo TCD658000 HD XL Digital Video Recorder
We recently dropped DirecTV in favor of Verizon FIOS for television service. Unimpressed with Verizon's HD DVR offering, I did a good bit of checking with all signs pointing to the Tivo HD XL (and non-XL) DVR.
It's easy to get addicted to Tivo and there's a reason why. The interface is VERY user friendly and they (Tivo) are great about pushing out software updates to the units. The XL offered a TON of HD storage capacity and even more standard definition capacity. The Verizon Tech attached this unit to a single cable run in the house, popped is credit-card-like decoder card inside a slot on the Tivo unit and I was off to the races receiving content over both built-in tuners. After a few days, the Tivo unit pulled down a software update and I was then able to stream Netflix and Amazon On Demand video, which I found uber-cool. You can even watch some YouTube videos through this thing. These on-demand features require a fairly speedy Internet connection I believe so your mileage may vary. The guide and interface is virtually the same as past Tivo units. The other cool thing I noticed is that both my <networked> Tivo HD units can see each other on my home network, allowing me to transfer recorded shows between Tivo units over my home network. The only nice-to-have feature I found missing is a caller-ID option, which I enjoy having. It may be there and I just haven't found it.
As for deducting 1 star, I have to attribute that to two things - the cost of the unit and the annoying advertisements they're now running on various menu screens/actions. Considering the cost of the box, the monthly Tivo subscription and any kickback for on-demand sales they may get, I would think they could spare you from the annoying ads. Part of the reason people buy a Tivo unit is so they can fast forward through commercials.
Amazon delivered my Tivo HD XL quickly and offered the best price at the time of my purchase.
