Who gots it?
Is it worth it? Can you set it up to record shows every week at a given time on a given channel?
Can you record shows that are on different channels but on at the same time?

Tivo will rock your world.
Most Tivo's can record two programs at the same time. Tivo learns about you and will record programming that it thinks you will enjoy.
It's hard to imagine life without Tivo. I feel sorry for people that don't have one.
There are too many things to mention here about it's abilities. Just don't even think, get a Tivo.

I can't wait till TiVo comes to Canada and they are planning it. I was at a cousins in the states WOW, it basically makes watching TV on your time when you want to such freedom!!! id buy plus they are going to have downloads via netflix also there are currently talk with Google and Yahoo so who knows whats next, there are also cool add ons like u can display the number on your TV of whos calling u on the phone. If you have a mac there is a widget where it tells u what is on... also there is a project to port Firefox to TiVo so...

get Tivo mevsthem knows what he's talking about.
Tivo is the sort of invention that will make you drool and forget to blink after a few solid hours of programming. It's that good.

get a dvr cable box or replay tv for your pc
both WAY better than tivo imo
replay tv: free once you have the software 2 shows at a time per video card
dvr: an extra 2 bucks on the digital cable bill 2 shows at a time per box
did i mention that you can ethernet your dvr to your pc and retrieve the files and make dvds from them
because i meant to

computer on 2nd floor - Tv on g/f

You can do that aswell with TiVo depends which box u get.

save up a lot of money, quit your job, munch copius amounts of prozac and watch Tivo for at least 20 hours a day. Feel the f*ckin power.

I have hbo, cinemax and tmc on demand and it cool when you first get it. until you realize it takes them 2 months to change the programming.
