There's so little worth watching anymore, I'm surprised you'd ever find
something to record at the same time you'd want to watch something else
on another channel. I'll likely never purchase a Tivo type device. I
can't recall the last time I found something worth recording.
It amazes me. Back when we got 3 channels (ABC, CBS, NBC) there was
much better quality shows. I'm getting ripped by Comcast for what I pay
to watch a few (pro/college) games and the weather.. Out of the 100+
channels they boast, I find 2-3 half useful.
