works for me

After less-than-ideal service with the Comcast DVR and digital packages, I decided I would be better served dropping down to the barebones analog package, digging out my old TiVO Series2, and downloading the TV shows that I normally watched from the cable channels. Sure, it is a little work in the mornings to select the shows to download, but it is far more reliable and of better quality than what I was getting with Comcast and their horrible DVR. And even with paying $10/month for high-speed Usenet access, it comes out SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper than what I would pay even for the "digital starter" package on Comcast. Also, with services like Miro on the PC, Netflix and Jaman on my TiVO, who needs these overpriced and feature-lacking things from cable?

Are you getting unlimited downloads through your current Usenet provider, or do you have some type of monthly download cap? We do comparisons & reviews of all the Usenet providers, and you may find a better option than your current $10/month arrangement...
