Could I really find enough to watch? - dave c 13:46:56 12/25/08 (1)
Are there that many shows worth watching?
I increasingly find myself in the same camp as those who say there is too much music/video/entertainment around.
Do these recorders automatically edit the adverts or do you just fast forward through them?
I totally agree that sports needs to be live.
Luckily the Fox sports channels only have breaks at half time during soccer matches.
- The original Replay recorder would edit out commercials - Wendell Narrod 13:57:50 12/25/08 (0)
  but the networks and advertisers insisted that feature be removed. You have to fast forward through them. As for enough to watch, I don't know.
  I'm more concerned about being able to watch when I want than volume of programming. Mine is never more than 30% full but I wouldn't do without it.
  DVRs, GPS systems and Cellphones are the most useful advancements I've encountered in the last 20 years.
