I'm cheating on TiVo
This afternoon I am starting an affair with Comcast's DVR.
It's all LeLo's fault. She introduced us to eachother. We did a bit of online dating and finally I worked it all out yesterday afternoon with Richard from Comcast.
Juan, the installer will be here between two and four.
TiVo's out,
Comcast DVR is in.
TiVo and I have been together for two years and they were a great two years, great I tell you. I was even thinking of moving to a lifetime subscription when I heard about Comcast's DVR, (from LeLo.)
Then two days ago something terrible happened.
My TiVo box had a fatal hardware problem that was going to neccesitate me to SEND IT TO TENNESEE to be switched out.
It would be TWO WEEKS without TiVo.
Hello?
The Survivor Finale is on SUNDAY!!!
That was when I decided that TiVo and I would need to "take a break" from eachother and I was going to try out Comcast's DVR. I haven't OFFICIALLY let TiVo know yet; I'm waiting to see how it goes with Comcast, and I am paid up til the end of the mont, but I'm afraid that the pros outweighed the cons and I need to try this out.
It's what's good for all of us.

We have Comcast here and have been thinking about getting DVR. I don't have TIVO and if I did I don't think I would have time to watch the stuff I would record. I seriously never watch TV. I used to be an avid Survivor watcher. Nope..I used to watch Lost..nope..I used to do a lot of things *sigh*
How come you have time and I don't????You have 3 kids!!!
I'm so proud to be able to influence you on such important life decisions. :) Yikes! I hope it all works out...As for Survivor Sunday night, I just hope Stephanie doesn't win!!!
Huh?
Kami, proud owner of a VCR
Pissy: You poor girl, I'm so sorry that you don't have time to do anything; you need a nice trip to Portland :)
Lelo: yes, this is all your fault, and I'm with you about Stephenie...
Kami: You should spend less time deep frying turkey's and more time using modern audio-media technology.
We have DVR but from Time Warner, we love it! Just have to watch for when shows run a few minutes later than the scheduled time. DVR (at least ours) goes by the times, NOT the show. Fran often sets it to record the next show so we can be sure to get the endings.
Cheating on tivo huh? Shame on you. What did you think about Survivor tonight and the curse of the car?
A.
I have TiVo and truly love it, plus I am do NOT lub Comcast as we have quality issues on upper channel A LOT. However I will check back to see if it's really better. Do you know if the recorder comes with a DVD burner component?
We have been thinking about getting another Tivo (there's 5 of us in the house) so maybe I'll give the Comcast one a shot.
DVR is the best thing ever. I've been trying to convert Kami. Can you believe she is still using a VCR to record?
