Any hi def hd drive video rec w/o service charges


Are there any high definition hard drive video recorders on the market that don't have service charges like Tivo? I know that Sony used to have two: DHG-HDD500, and DHG-HDD250, but they are no longer on the market. I guess Tivo, Comcast, Verizon, etc. got to them somehow.

If you do the "Lifetime Subscription" option($399), it pays for itself in about a year. It had been cancelled for awhile, but has now been re-started.
My problem is that I have a stand-alone Sony w/Lifetime, but I want an HD unit that can't be used with SAT since it needs a cable card(it supposedly can be used with an OTA antenna). I can use it with Fiber-optic(Surewest), but then what would I do with my two DirecTV versions? Will an OTA antenna be affected by the new law come February?
