TiVo Series2 Digital Video Recorder (*TiVo Service Fee Not Included)
Buy it...then Hack it
I have one Series 1 and one Series 2 TIVO.  They are great.  The only negative which really isn't one, since it is probably price prohibitive would be that it only records one channel at a time.  While the DirectTIVO can record 2 shows at once.<br />Anyway, buy it and hack it to over 200 hours (I did and it's quite simple).  Go to  .<br />Also remember you have to pay $$$ extra for the guide data. Or a monthly subscription fee...don't recall the amount.
