ReplayTV RTV5516 160-Hour Digital Video Recorder
I too was taken... I will never own or recommend a Replaytv
I too purchased a &quot;pre-activated&quot; 5504 from Circuit City through amazon.com.  Advertised as 3 years of service included on the website, called and confirmed the sale and service was included with representatives at replaytv, confirmed with reps at Circuit City that the unit I purchased included service, and registered the unit on 12/20 and hooked it up without additional service commitments.  Then on the morining of 12/29 the company de-activated my unit.  According to them, their policies have changed and I'm now required to pay a subscription.  Today was the first day I heard such a thing!  So, this company took it upon themselves to disconnect my service and render by unit useless while I slept.  My recommendation, buy a TIVO.  I sure wish I did.
