Philips HDR312 TiVo 30-Hour Digital Video Recorder
This is the best product I've ever bought !!!!
Rarely does a product completely change the way you do something in your  life, this one did.  I watch what I want, when I want and if I need to stop  for some reason I do, knowing that I can easily resume later. <br />It  completely lives up to its hype, its amazingly easy to use (we never even  opened the manual), and I can't imagine living without it.  We work a lot,  and thus being able to pick exactly what programming we want to watch and  when is pretty great.<br />In 15 years of VCR ownership, I was rarely able to  record a show correctly, I've never messed it up with Tivo, press one  button and it does the rest, automatically, week after week, its that  easy!!!
