Get a satellite dish (Direct TV) and a DVR recorder and be done with it.
Buy DVDR now or let standards/technology settle?
I need to replace my VCR and have been naturally attracted to DVD recorders. However, as I read reviews, the technology and standards seem to be in flux. We have HDTV coming, and I don't know if there will be shakeout among DVD formats (for reusable media we have -RW, +RW, RAM, doing one better than VHS-Beta duel) or new ones will be added.
SO, here is my question: If I have no pressing need for a *DVD* recorder right now, just *a* recorder to record TV shows I would miss, does it make sense to buy DVD recorder at present? Would it be better to manage with another VCR and check the DVDR scene in 1-2 years?
