I used to laugh at Tivo ads. Then I learned what it was.
It's just a computer with video recorder (hard drive). Smart menus, and it dials up once a day to download program guides (like tv guide), but better. It makes it so easy to record things it's ridiculous.
I have it set up for "season passes" as well as manual selections.
Anytime it sees a show I like it records it. So I just let it run.
Before Tivo, tv was a pain. I would always forget shows I wanted to see, or just not watch them. Now, I just turn on tivio and I have dozens of hours of stuff to watch, and all my favorites!
I got so spoiled I wanted another Tivo for my bedroom. Could not afford it. So got a transmitter to transmit the signal to the aux in of my bedroom tv, and an IR remote control room to room transmitter to control the living room tivo from the bedroom and voila! Tivo in the bedroom! I click on my favorite shows and fall asleep with them sometimes (or sometimes listening to my headphones of course).
Love my Tivo!
