My wife and I recently went back and discussed getting rid of our HD DVR from Charter "Moxi". The DVR id as advertised but we missed the features that our Tivo's had bundeled. The main one was the ability to transfer shows from on room to the other. In our case it was from the living room to the bedroom. But that wasn't the biggest deciding factor, although it weighed in. The content available now with the Tivo Priemere HD boxes is exceptional. I can dowlonad my favorite video pocasts, listen to Pandora, use my Netflix account and much more. The one feature that will be coming to the Tivo premiere, with is what I would assume would be via a software update is the ability to link your Hulu account. I think that with Hulu and and just a basic over the air antenna we would be set.

I know they are pushing for the same change that happened to cable modems a while back. Letting the subscriber choose to rent or buy there own personal modem at a local electronics store such as Best Buy. The same would be true with cable set top boxes. But I would expect the price of cable cards to increase as the cable companies loose revenue. I wish that a person could choose the channels that he/ she not have to pay for the several hundred other channels that you don't watch. For us it would be (hgtv, tlc, discovery, national geographic, etc..)
