ReplayTV 2020 Digital Video Recorder
Convenient and Powerful
I won the ReplayTV in the Amazon.com sweepstakes and after the initial disappointment of not being able to configure the product properly, am pretty much happy with it. It is very conveninent to program it and forget  about it...it will record your favourite shows/movies with the push of a  button and viewing it later it very easy too..push a couple of buttons. The  most amazing thing is that it categorizes the movies and shows into zones  like Action, Comedy, and so on.<br />But like eveything else, this too has its  limitations... - Standard recording option shall give you 20 hours of  record time but the quality of the recording is passable and NOT great -  Customer service is really bad. I had problems setting up the system  initially and had to figure it out myself what was wrong. Even now, after a  couple of months, the channel listing for my area is wrong - You cannot  record one show while recording another,if you use a cable box, even if you  use a cable splitter. - The channel listing it retrieves from the network  is wrong so you cannot record shows aired on about 15 channels.( This is  true for Hudson, MA for CableVision, I do not know about other areas)<br />For  its sheer convenience and ability to pause real/live TV it deserves 4  stars, but for the problems it would have had 5 stars
