This is my first visit to Home Theater. I'm strictly a 2-channel guy with a 27" Panasonic CRT TV. But I could use a little help, if the experts here don't mind pitching in.
A DVR recorder does seem as if it would be of value, given the atrocious programming on most channels, whether cable or dish. I have both. Many is the time I cannot find something to watch on the dozens and dozens of channels available. But I don't want to get a Dish DVR for reasons I won't go into, other than I object to paying an extra $5 every month. After all, if it's my dang machine, why should they charge me for it? There are other reasons too.
I believe DVR recorders are available that are not cable or dish models. If so, what brands are good or which should be avoided?
Provided my assumption is correct, can a DVR be added without a cable or dish system knowing about it?
Any help I can get on this would be appreciated. Thanks.
(By the way, isn't "DVR recorder" repetitious? Doesn't DVR stand for digital video recorder?)
