Pros: Pause live tv, record numerous programs, and more importantly prevent fighting over the television
Cons: expensive, month charge (12/month)
Summary: While spending a few hundred dollars to invest in a Tivo player isn't on the top of everyones list of things to do, it does save a ton of time, effort, and aggravation if your looking tape things on television a lot. If your like me, then you have a busy ... read more

Cons: Service is expensive but not outrageous compared to my local cable provider.
Summary: Because of my job, I travel quite a bit. I am sick of paying for cable TV and always missing my favorite TV shows so I decided to invest in TIVO. I did my research on the internet and decided to stick with the named brand (TIVO). I couldn't make my ... read more

Pros: Awesome to have, easy to use
Cons: Can't really ff commercials, only on recorded programs. Slow remote reactions. ANNOYING SOUNDS!
Summary: I recieved this as a gift for my b-day last june. It has been a true lifesaver. I am able to record my favorite show "Motorweek" every week. The season pass manager is a nice feature to have, it allows you to record a weekly showing automatically. On the

Pros: Convenience
Cons: The device doesn't last more than a year.

Pros: You can watch TV on your own time and not miss a show.
Cons: It will only show 11 days of scheduled programing. Not 2 months out. No Webtv.
Summary: I'm sad they don't have them anymore. My Ultimate TV system started having problems after having it only 2 years but the unit all in all was awesome when it worked. It was replaced by a Phillips Tivo. I could do so many more things with Ult. TV.

Pros: Very smart software, EASY to use, YOU own it (not cable company).
Cons: Curious future with cable DVR competition. Pricey without rebates.
Summary: We've had TIVO (140 hour) for 5 months and love it. So much so we may get another (40 hour) for the upstairs TV. Subscripton service (12.95/month and 6.95 for multiples) is well worth it. Cable bill is expensive for us and had very little

Pros: The best thing obviously is being able to watch tv on YOUR schedule.
Cons: You may end up watching much more TV!
Summary: We got our TiVo through DirecTV. It was advertised at 99.00, but I ended up getting it for about half because of a mix-up with ordering. Anyway, TiVo is the BEST invention EVER! The options that it offers are fantastic; you can look for tv shows
