"any of the crap Motorola or Scientific Atlanta DVRs that cable companies usually foist on their highest-paying customers."
I just wanted to second that. Boy-o-boy those sure are crap. The regular Scientific Atlanta cable boxes are an absolute embarrassment to the software engineering community. (Which is what I have -- Optimum cable in NY).
@gadam07: And that's pretty much exactly what I said in that last paragraph, when I begrudgingly turned back to the TiVo. So, yes, more contenders = better.
Hulu you say? With this I can cancel my cable! But of course I would never do that because I'd want to use my awesome new DVR to record my favorite shows, which I of course won't bother recording because I can access them on Hulu!
Hmm.. I guess I'll have to pass. This thing opens up a personal paradox that will likely tear the space-time continuum of my soul.
Man, you guys are fact-checking the hell out of me today, and I appreciate it. I was clearly not paying 100% attention when I wrote it. Busy day. Sorry!!
There's no mention of expansion via eSATA like on TiVo and cable boxes, nor is there any mention of the internet apps we have come to expect in everything devices like this one.

Alas, finding HD tuner or capture cards that both work well and don't shit a brick over copy-protected content is another story..

Support some new competition in the DVR market.
That'll guarantee better products down the line.
