Tivo Series 2

Date of Review:  Jan 17, 2005
Review: I have had the Series 2 since it first came out and also have the original series 1. They are both incredible products which dramatically change the way that you view TV. The Series 2 steps it up a notch by adding the ability to listen to music and...

Easy to underestimate TIVO

Date of Review:  Sep 16, 2002
The Bottom Line: A great item! I wouldn't know what to do without mine!
Review: A great item! Wouldn't know what to do without mine!
Truly a revolutionary item although its very easy to underestimate TIVO. I mean in theory it really is 'just' a vcr, but once you have a TIVO, you will understand. Choose the shows you like...

TiVo addiction

Date of Review:  Nov 20, 2003
The Bottom Line: Now is the time to get TiVo. It is well past the "bleeding edge" of technology and lives up to its advertising.
Review: Ok, I'm going to jump on the Tivo bandwagon. I really have little to say that the other reviewers haven't said already, but I wanted to add my vote for the TiVo experience.

Yes, it is great to be able to pause live TV. My partner and I...

Advice AND A FIX for prospective TiVo "upgraders"

Date of Review:  Nov 12, 2003
The Bottom Line: Upgrade your old unit and keep it.
Review: If your thinking about "upgrading" to a new TiVo series 2 perhaps you might want to think again. From what I read many of the best features of TiVo have been removed (dual tuners, digital audio output, redefining recording capacity) from some...

Tivo Changed My Life (for better!)

Date of Review:  Dec 20, 2002
The Bottom Line: Life is too short to fool with vcrs. Get Tivo!
Review: Actually, Tivo changed my wife's life. After doing quite a bit of research I decided to purchase the 80 hour Tivo Digital Video Recorder. I opted for the monthly billing of $12.95 (to your credit card). I paid $399.99 for the unit, and I will...

The only way to watch tv

Date of Review:  Dec 1, 2002
The Bottom Line: Watch for a bargain at a mainline electronic store. I would recommend the extended warranty.
Review: I have been using a digital video recorder for almost 2 years. I had reliability problems with Panasonic and Sony. Fortunately for me, I had the extended warranty and was able to switch to a TIVO Series 2 - 60 hrs. for $299 after rebate. So far so...

Why does the new version have fewer features than the old one?

Date of Review:  Jun 9, 2004
Review: My 20 year old VCR can record two channels at the same time and can handle picture-in-picture. My Ultimate TV DVR from 5 years ago gave me these features (it also loaded all the screen info about 20 times faster, but that's another issue). I...

Great Device, poor picture

Date of Review:  Jan 6, 2003
The Bottom Line: TiVo is a big step forward from the VCR, but the picture quality leaves much to be desired, especially when used with a HDTV.
Review: If you are a 'videophile' - or even if you have a slight interest in watching clear TV, TiVo might be a disappointment. The image quality is not very good, even at its highest setting. This poor quality is compounded when you have an HDTV or other...

Just buy it already!

Date of Review:  Apr 17, 2004
The Bottom Line: Despite the ripoff of the "lifetime" service and the increasing monthly costs--and that your modem WILL die--I totally recommend a Tivo. It rocks.
Review: I was one of the first 100 Tivo customers in 1999. Even with the first unit--the way that we watched TV was forever changed. You watch TV when you want, not when the networks want you to watch. Also, you can fast forward through commercials, and...

Tivo rocks!

Date of Review:  Jan 9, 2004
Review: We've had our Tivo for a year now, and it is the best purchase we've made! I don't think we could live without it! I still forget sometimes that I can pause and rewind live TV! It's also so easy to set programs to tape.

Once you make the...
