That way when a few weeks go by and you've completely forgotten about wanting to see this new show or special or whatever, it's right there waiting for you like a little Christmas present. :cool:

Aside from bigger hard drives, I wonder what the future of these things are?

how about every t.v. station going out of business because no one watches the commercials, which is where they get their money from.

on the positive side of things.. how about being able to e-mail shows that you've recorded to other people? or, even being able to fast forward, and watch t.v. shows before they would normally air. or how about a little tube that connects to your brain, inputing the t.v. show direct, so that you get all the information, without having to actually watch it.. thus saving time, and completely destroying the purpose of watching t.v.
