My Love For the DVR
It's been about a decade since the first DVR units came out. I can remember when Panasonic released its first product, which was known as Replay TV at the time. I was thrilled by the concept of digitally recording any TV show, even if I wasn't there.
I loved the idea of something like this. I always found myself short on tapes, and hated to erase things I'd previously recorded. I would also have a hard time finding certain shows within the tapes, as fast forwarding and rewinding was always a hassle. The advent of the DVR would solve both of these problems.
If I was out at night for dinner, I could come home and watch my favorite shows a few hours after they were originally broadcast. I wouldn't need to worry about a tape running out of room, or having to buy new ones.
Everything sounded great to me and I ended up buying the Replay TV. The only drawback about it was that you'd have to download the TV guide via dial-up Internet to keep up with the listings.
This was really my only gripe since the rest of it was just as advertised. I was in love with my recorder and it made life so much easier.
Nowadays, there are many more things you can do with a digital video recorder. The most notable, however, is the fact that you can hold a lot more programming on the box at once.
I can't believe it's been almost ten years since I first read about this device. At the time, it seemed like one of the most futuristic pieces of technology I'd ever encountered. Today, it's common in most households.
I fully appreciate the fact that I have one in my house. My cable box broke a few months ago, and living without one made me realize just how useful they are.
