How much do folks pay for SAT-TV. often 100/month or more.. THere is a new provider that claims 50/month. I pay nothing for OVER THE AIR. though I do admit to paying 2.00/month (well 25 dollars a year) for an Electronic TV guide.
Wonder how much the paper one costs?????
Same here for OTA and the $25 guide. What do you use for recording and playback?
Way back around 2003 I picked up a couple of REPLAY TV units. back then they let me record on one play back on the other. Download to a portable device. Stream from a computer and the stuff the ads say can only be done if you subscribe to the expensive over priced subscription service (AND MORE) ..
They still do.. Only now I have to use a "Digital front end" (Set top box to convert ATSC to NTSC because the replays are NTSC only)
What's more if I am in a park with ANALOG cable I can download both the OTA and Cable guides and the REPLAYS will automatically choose the source.. picking the DIgital input on line 2 or the RF (Analog cable) in as needed.
