Default I miss TiVo

I really do.

I understand why DirecTV has their own box but with them owning a good part of TiVo - why not buy the whole thing and make TiVo yet another reason why you HAVE TO own DirecTV?

The HR21pro just isn't that good in my opinion.

There should be a feature to be able to record a sports team's games IN HD and ONLY in HD that is better than the keyword method. There should be a way to not see the SD channels when there is an HD channel also. For example - why do I need to see CNN SD when there is CNN HD? It makes channel surfing SO CLUNKY....

What is sad is all the stuff you mention the competition Dish does and has for over a year.

Default Dish versus DirecTV

But Dish doesn't have the NFL package meaning I can't watch the Eagles living in LA every Sunday.
