Pros: Tivo service is indispensable once you start using it. Cons: Sluggish interface performance.
Talk to a few Tivo owners and they’ll all probably tell you that Tivo has completely changed the way they watch television. I watch a fair amount of television, but I’ve never been a person to tune in regularly to a weekly sitcom. I don’t watch game...
Pros:DUAL TUNERS ARE HERE!!! Record 2 shows at once! Never watch live TV again! Cons: Expensive, but worth it.
I've had Directv for at least 4 or 5 years. When I dropped cable and switched to satellite I thought I had died and gone to heaven. I got more channels, better picture and sound, and I got it all for less $. I didn't think it could get any better......
Pros: Records two things simultaneously. Perfect recording picture quality. Cons: Expensive. Slow guide system. Have to set up a satellite dish.
I started using a stand-alone TIVO unit in the middle of December (Sony SVR-2000) and was amazed by the new flexibility that I had while I was watching TV. I would never watch a TV show live in order to avoid the commercials and it was very simple for...
Pros: TV when and how you want, excellent recording quality Cons: Kind of noisy, it might be expensive, but still a great value.
I travel quite extensively, so I don’t really get to watch what I want. The last thing I am interested in doing is flipping through 250 channels only to find that there 235 infomercials on. I had been intrigued by the idea if Tivo for a couple of...
Pros: Easy to use, high quality DirecTV digital recorder! Cons: Sluggish channel-changing, lacks ability to record non-DirecTV programming
Okay, let me start by saying that neither I nor any family member is employed by Sony, DirecTV or TiVo. I'm just your average poor boy from the suburbs who likes watching TV.
I've been a DirecTV subscriber for a few years now. I also have...
Pros: Great interface, perfect picture, good storage Cons: Slow guide updates, slow season pass management, some modem problems
I won't waste your time explaining how TiVo has changed our viewing habits and use of TV. I could never go back to regular TV again. The T60 is a DirecTivo unit, now referred to as Direct TV DVR with TiVo. That just means the DVR and satellite receiver ...
Pros: Play, rewind, pause, record beautiful things Cons: Equipment isn't made as well as I had imagined. I expect more from Sony
We bought our first Tivo about 1 1/2 years ago when we subscribed to Direct TV. We decided to be safe and buy a Sony Tivo. Trustworthy, Quality.........? We paid around $300 for the multi function machine. Tivo as everyone says has changed our life. ...
Pros: A great value and time saver. Cons: Fear of bad reviews coming true.
This is the next thing you should buy if you ever watch TV. I would recommend getting TiVo before you upgrade any other component including your TV. It not only changes the way you watch TV it changes how you spend your free time.
Pros: Record 2 shows simultaneously Cons: Pricier than others (Philips,Hughes), can only record satellite shows, slow menus (see below).
I have had this unit now for approx 2 months and I've enjoyed every moment. I was a previous DirecTV customer for about 1 year, and I was new to TiVo. This unit replaced my Sony standalone DirecTV receiver. TiVo is an incredible addition to the T.V....
Pros: When it works, it's great. 2 lines in from satellite, records multiple shows at once. Cons: Internal modem breaks down easily and unpredictably, customer service from Tivo and Sony is awful.
Tivo and Sony have some of the worst customer service it has ever been my displeasure to receive, and I discovered it with this product.
This unit has an incredibly sensitive modem which breaks easily, and your Tivo service eventually stops...
Pros: nice features ... intuitive to use Cons: slow menus, terrible customer support
I've had the TiVo for a little over 5 months now. I've loved the ability of watching one program, taping another, and pausing tv while I settle the kids down. What I did not expect was the unit to fail after 5 months.
Pros: will never know Cons: immediatly blew my television and its self out after instalation.
We received this as a gift for Christmas. After switching from digital cable to satalite we had the tivo/receiver unit proffesionally installed. It immediatly blew out our Television and receiver/ tivo unit. The Good Guy's repair man said it was a power...
