Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - tivo prices
I just purchased a samsung 46 inch hdtv and purchased a $99 tivo on promotion but my billing shows $254.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Can't live without it
I found out about a TIVO several years ago. I was hesitant to get one because VCRs were so difficult to set the recordings on. TIVO has made it so simple to do. I don't miss anything I want to see on television anymore.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Probably worth the money
I finally broke down and bought a TiVo after trying some DIY solutions. Although SageTV, BeyondTV, etc. do well enough for SD TV, I found trying to record HD episodes was really difficult. TiVo's user interface is pretty slick, and if you can get your cable guy to install the cablecards right after 2 or 3 tries, it's definitely worth the money, subscription and all, EXCEPT....there are now rumors floating around on the tech blogs that the is a auto-delete flag feature. That is to say, the recorded ... Read More
