I don't have cable unless you count the basic that I pay $1 per month for that I keep around for backup that came with my cable modem.

I have DirecTV which puts cable to shame.

My DVR with TiVo is my tuner so there is no box that I have to remember to leave on. Also since it actually has two tuners in it I can record two shows at once or watch one show while it is recording another. Also I only pay $4.99 per month for my TiVo since they have a special deal with DirecTV.
