Title: Recording
Post by: Podmark on March 14, 2010, 02:36:35 AM
So my VCR is slowly dying and I need to start considering a new method of recording. I don't really know much about whats out there, so I was hoping you guys could give me some suggestions.

Just tv shows to watch later, when I'm out or busy. I can research it myself but was hoping to get some direction. I know cable networks offer a service but isn't there something you can buy and use at home. Yeah sorry I'm way out of date on this stuff.

You can probably watch many of the shows online and really save some money

I always go to hulu.com to watch any shows I might have missed.

Yeah, very major network has most shows available the day after on their websites.  Hulu has most of them in one place.

Other than that, I DVR of some kind is your best bet.

Online is something I use but this would be for my family so watching stuff off a computer isn't ideal for all of them. Thanks for the help guys.
