Tivo Series2 Digital TV Recorder: Do Not Even Consider Purchasing Unless.....

Date of Review:  Jan 8, 2004
The Bottom Line: A wonderful device that makes your TV more convenient than you can imagine.
Review: I was just not a believer in the amazing abilities of Tivo until recently. Part of the reason was that I just was not that into TV. I did not have any shows I had to see, nor did I have the urge to spend a month trying to figure out how to operate a...

Great Deal To Upgrade Your TIVO

Date of Review:  Jul 4, 2006
The Bottom Line: If you are in the market for a TIVO upgrade or are considering becoming a new TIVO subscriber, now is the time to purchase this unit at a great price.
Review: I had been using the older TIVO 240004A model which was a single tuner 40-hour DVR and came across a great deal on Buy.com which was for the newer double tuner TCD649080, 80-hour DVR for $214. with shipping and a $15. instant discount and $150...

Tivo! Changed my life!

Date of Review:  Feb 1, 2008
The Bottom Line: Great Concept! A great buy if you don't have a service that has its own DVR.
Review: I have been a Tivo fan for several years. I love it!! This has certainly changed my families life. Tivo is great to have for recording shows (no more find the tape!) and fast forwarding through commercials. I now have 4 DVRs in my house!! I must say...

The benefits of digital cable without the cost

Date of Review:  Mar 16, 2007
The Bottom Line: This DVR seems to be well thought-out and carefully designed. It really has a ton features that you won't be able to live without.
Review: I used to have a DVR and digital cable from the cable company, which was affordable because I had two roommates to split the bill. Once I moved out on my own, I decided not to get one because it meant that I would need to have digital cable, which...

Setup is NOT for the novice user

Date of Review:  Aug 6, 2006
The Bottom Line: This is a great product but was difficult to set up. This review is not based on the service.
Review: This review will primarily deal with the setup and installation of a TiVo Series 2 80 Hour DT box, the associated "TiVo desktop" PC app, and Tivo's web integration. I have not used the service for long enough yet to give it a fair grade but so far...

Tivo Series 2 DT (Dual Tuner) - TCD 649080

Date of Review:  Sep 22, 2008
The Bottom Line: stop wasting time reading opinions, just go out and buy one and start enjoying it.
Review: i record a LOT of shows everyday while at work, i used to have three VCR's to record all my favorite shows on different channels and eventually had one vcr go bad so i figured instead of replacing it i would get out of the 'stone age' and get into...

Why did I wait? Oh yeah...the price drop

Date of Review:  Jan 17, 2008
The Bottom Line: This Tivo unit is an intuitive time-saver. It is inexpensive if you shop around. I recommend it to anyone who can live without surround sound.
Review: I have owned the Tivo Series2 for about 6 months. When I purchased it I had a concern - I do not have a land line telephone, only VOIP, and the Tivo DVRs have traditionally used the phone line for set up and to receive the data pertaining to the...

Cannot imagine life without my TiVo!

Date of Review:  May 24, 2008
The Bottom Line: TiVo makes my life simpler. Very responsive software. Enough storage. Dual Tuner helps you record 2 shows at a time. Best DVR on the market. Way better than cable/satellite DVRs.
Review: I have had my Series 2 dual tuner 80 GB TiVo for almost 3 years now and I want to just say I cannot imagine my life with out it anymore. I don't know how I used to watch LIVE tv with commercials and without my TiVo.

It literally knows me...

tivo is great, but this tivo box does not record in hd

Date of Review:  May 27, 2008
The Bottom Line: i recommend tivo, but i would invest in the series 3 so you can record in hd.
Review: tivo is the best invention. i started with the series 2 dual channel box.
tivo can be used with basic cable instead of digital cable. tivo can be used with a cable connection instead of a telephone line.
tivo was little confusing to set up...

Tivo Sucks your wallet dry with desired features.

Date of Review:  Jan 17, 2005
The Bottom Line: Buy one soon, Pay for lifetime service. But bug them for more features before buying a second one.
Review: The Tivo Series 2 DVR is great. The programmability is very easy and flexible. We only record show we want our children to watch. We get to watch shows we would normally miss because of homework and bedtime. Now we get to watch all our favorite...
