But it will come one day - the networked DVD-HDD.

Throw in a three-channel TV tuner so we can record up to 3 programs at
the same time and you have the ultimate DVR experience without the
expense of subscriptions.

Snapstream and Sage have GUIs for making a computer into a DVR. Now
all we need is a PCI 3-channel tuner card.

Wouldn't you rather have a custom PC doing the work of a DVR?
