I searched and didn't see an offical thread. Surprising on this site.
I just got the TiVo Prem XL and I have to say it beats the crap out of Time Warner Cable's Scientific Atlanta DVR. That DVR continually froze up, cut off shows, and was slow to respond to remote commands. It was just an awful experience. To be emphatic- TiIME WARNER CABLE IS A TERRIBLE PROVIDER. But I live in NYC and there is no other choice.
With TWC they rent you all the equipment. I was paying ~$60 a month for DVR service and to rent the box, modem, et al. Now, I own my own all my stuff.
So with TiVo, I am going for the lifetime fee and I will be done with the monthly crap. Plus, it's very user friendly. If you're holding back- I will say TiVo is pretty cool.
After doing the math, it will pay for itself after ~2.5 yrs. Anyone else got TiVo or a similar experience?
