Confessions of a TiVo Addict - Has TiVo really ruined my life?

By Stephen Schleicher

Hi. My name is Stephen, and I’m a TiVo addict. I love TiVo so much that I actually bought two; one for the home theatre in the rec room and dual tuner for the family set. While TiVo (and PVRs in general) is the best thing since sliced bread, there are some reasons for concern.

The great thing about TiVo is I no longer have to worry about missing my favorite television shows. Tell TiVo to record Smallville, and boom, every episode of Smallville is recorded and stored until I have a chance to watch it. Love The Rockford Files? No problem set a Season Pass to record every episode. Heck, if you put Rockford on a Wish list, if The Rockford Files movies air on a different channel, TiVo will catch them too. Don’t want to watch a repeat? The Season Pass Manager let’s you select which episodes TiVo will record. If I am watching a live show, and the cat throws up on the carpet, I can push the pause button, clean up the mess, and when the cat is feeling better, resume watching CSI, or CSI: Miami, or CSI: New York, without missing a beat.

Life is great with TiVo. Or is it?
