I have 1.5TB of storage, 5 OTA HD Tuners and BeyondTV only reports that I have 164 Hrs of recording. That must be 2,300 hrs of SD programming.

I bought them a TiVo a few years ago - and my dad can't get a gigabyte in edgewise... it's full of soaps, Lifetime movies and I Dream of Jeanie. My parents have that problem, Don.

It would take my wife at least a couple of weeks to fill that up with The View, Oprah and every Entertainment/Fashion show she records. I have to keep reminding her - buying the DVR was MY IDEA! 1.5 TB of storage…

A sports nut could record all the sports channels. I might record Current and skip all the pods that don't interest me. I would still prefer the system where the cable operator records everything and I just retrieve anything I want at my leisure.

Oooh, cc searching, that's never been done before(sarcasm). Oooh, 10 tuners, I have three HDTV tuners and 2 SDTV tuners in my box already so 10 isn't a big deal.

So it basically turns your cable system into a 100% on demand platform with built-in alerts so you don't have to wade through it all.

Oh and yes, it would be awesome to have one of these.
