will tivo REALLY work w/o a subscription?
alright, so i just had a birthday & so i have some money. my father refuses to get DVR, although we just got digital cable.
my question is, (i don't care about setting things manually...been doing it all my life with the VCR, heh) will the tivo box work as, figuratively, an 80-hour capacity cassette tape? and will it also work with digital cable (though not HDTV)
there is a $100 tivo set at radioshack right now. if it will still record without the subscription, i'll buy it. =]
thanks!

Hi Mr.Wonderful,
The series 1 TiVo will allow you to record manually as will the early series 2 but anything currently being sold will not work without a subscription.
You can get some real good deals and buying a three year subscription with the TiVo makes the package pretty cheap.
