If you have not heard of TiVo and DVR yet take a close look at what they offer. TiVo is an incredible system that gives you the ability to rewind and even pause television while it is airing. In addition to TiVo’s ability to pause and rewind television that is live, you will be able to fast forward TV after you have paused it for a certain amount of time. In other words, let’s say that you are watching the football game and you have to get up to get a snack or use the restroom, with TiVo you can pause it and resume when you return. On top of pausing the game, when you get back you will be able to actually fast forward through any commercials all the way up into the point where TV is being aired. Now, instead of waiting until the next commercial break to get a snack or use the restroom, you can actually happily go in the middle of the game knowing that you will not have to sit through the next commercial break.
The DVR system (also known as the Digital Video Recorder) replaces the VCR (or, of course, the Video Cassette Recorder) and revolutionized television recording as we know it. The VCR had so many problems attached to it, as I am sure you can remember (or still deal with). How about recording on fast or slow speed? How do you ever know which it is supposed to be, and even if you are doing it right? Half the time you end up recording only the first half of the show if you are on the wrong speed! What about the VCR’s lousy recording timer? When you first got your VCR it seemed you would never have to rush home from work in fear of missing your favorite program again! But you were wrong weren’t you? Instead of the VCR being a reliable solution, it became an easier way to miss your favorite program since you thought it was going to record your show when the timer decides not to work properly. Now it is true that not everyone has experienced those specific problems but we all know of the difficulty of storing those cumbersome Video Cassettes! People will load up bookshelves with old video cassettes, making for a rather unattractive conversation piece. Not only is there the problem of storing video cassettes, there is also the general problems of frustrations that come with recording with the VCR. In order to tape a show on the VCR you have to set a rather primitive timer and be sure that you set it at the correct recording speed. Many have found time and time again that the timer is faulty and that it is difficult to always record at the proper speed. Now these problems are over with TiVo and the DVR, or Digital Video Recorder (the VCR of the new millennium) offered by DirecTV.
Now if you think it doesn’t get any better than that, just wait until you hear about HD TV and all of the Sports and Movie channels offered with DirecTV packages. It doesn’t get any better than DirecTV.
