I had TiVo for over a year and, like many others, don't know how I ever watched TV without it. Recently I switched from TiVo to the DVR provided by my cable company. There have been several pros and a few cons:
Pros of DVR vs. TiVo:
- DVR through my cable company is cheaper by about $3/month
- DVR records two shows at once while I'm watching a third
- The recorded picture is much more clear because the DVR is my cable box
Cons of DVR vs. Tivo:
- The picture sometimes breaks up on my DVR, sometimes to the extent that the show completely stops and is unwatchable (which never happened with TiVo)
In any case, the DVR/TiVo is the best thing to happen to TV since high definition!

I got a DVR, and I love it!!! It makes everything so much more convenient, now my fiance and I don't have to argue over a TV show. For only $6 more a month too, how could you go wrong...

it is wonderful isn't it? i heard that certain TV makers were trying to manufacture a Television that would not allow you to fastforward through commercials with TIVO or change channels when you are watching live TV! How awful would that be? I hate commercials!
