Directv HD DVR DWO2-10020 Satellite TV Receiver
Ultimate item to go with your HDTV
Like many, I had an HDTV that I watched little HDTV on.  Not because of lack of programming available, but because having to watch commercials or watch TV on the network's schedule prevented me from watching LIVE HDTV (we owned three low definition Tivos prior to this purchase). <br /> <br />Yes, DirecTV doesn't office some of the home media options or folders on their Tivo boxes, but those are mostly peripheral offerings.  Nothing does what this unit does as well as this unit does it period.  This unit takes Tivo and HDTV to the next level! Two recording sources.  Real-time conversion to all TV formats.  Same Tivo interface we all love plus a more traditional satellite box guide view.  Off-air and satellite reception.  There's a reason why this unit won best of show at CES.  And something I wasn't aware of, you don't have to purchase the $300 lifetime subscription with DirecTV DVRS. <br /> <br />When I first purchased this unit, I thought I would have trouble justifying a $1000 spend.  Now that I have it, even my frugal wife understands why I bought it and the HDTV I purchased last year. <br />
