TiVo TCD540040 Series2 40-Hour Digital Video Recorder
Recording capacity is wrong
Well, I like the IDEA of Tivo, but I have to say so far I'm a little miffed. Most important caveat -- the 40-hour recorder doesn't REALLY hold 40 hours of TV. Oh, it'll hold 40 hours on \\"Basic Quality\\" (which looks like fertilizer), but the capacty on \\"High Quality\\" is only 18 hours (\\"Best Quality\\" is a measly 11). Only on \\"Best Quality\\" do you get something that apporximates what you see on Live TV, even high quality looks like an old VHS tape. So unless you only want to watch one show a week, go for the 80-hour. That's what I'm doing.
