I bought a TivoHD with a 1TB drive and lifetime service last Dec. It's
fed by Verizon's FIOS TV and AV is sent around the house using a
component/audio distribution amp. X10 Powermids allow remote control of
the Tivo in distant rooms. If I didn't already have the component amp
and had HDMI connections on the various TVs I would have gone with a
HDMI amp.
There were some freeze ups for the first 6 months that required long
and slow reboots. Tivo updated the software this summer and now it runs
smoothly. I'm very happy with this setup.

Howdy - Getting ready to join the rest of the world and buy a DVR and I'm considering springing for a Tivo service also -Ya'll are always so knowledgable about this stuff I thought I'd see what you suggest - Tivo has a plan for $12.95/mo or $129/yr - is there any reason to buy a more expensive plan?I've been pricing DVR's also - some come with tivo as part of the package. The lower priced ($149) has a Tivo Series II Dual TunerDigital Recorder w/80 hr cap HD. This will give 80 hours of recording time - whch looks like enough to me -However, obviousdly there will be some programs I;ll want to save - since it comes with ethernet & USB ports I assume I can download programs into my computer network? Once in the puter I'm sure I can put it on a DVD. Any suggestions? Thanks!
