Rumors… TiVo to be bought by Apple computer?

New technology is supposed to be an improvement, not a slide backwards. So how come when I read this thread your DVR and TiVo are still behind my best VCR -

"How many days of programming do you have on the DVR? 7? TiVo has 17" My VCR gives me a month

"Say you want to record NYPD Blue but don't know what time it's on or what channel. How would you search for it? Oh, that's right, you can't" VideoPlus been doing that at least ten years, probably more (and also doing the "find the correct start/finish time of programs if they are rescheduled after you program the video" thing).

"Can you set your DVR to record any & all Brad Pitt movies?" If any of my equipment starts to record all Brad Pitt movies it goes out of the window instantly.
