...those TiVo things? There are a lot of products that use memory chips or drives like a computer for recording TV shows. The recording is digital (although some might have better compression than others), and you get a whole bunch of extra options compared to a DVD-RAM (writable drive). I know that one option includes recording two different TV shows at the same time. The only drawback right now is that I don't know if you can archive shows on discs or tapes like DVD and VHS.

Most of my experience in is computers, and I think there shouldn't be any problem for these companies of offer some method for archiving. Does anyone else have experience with the products I'm talking about?

As for your S-VHS question, I've always heard that JVC S-VHS players are pretty good. If you are doing a lot of recording, you will probably want to spend a little more to get better recording heads. Sorry for the babble.
