I was reading Mike Industries Blog today about his frustration with his DVR. I occaisionally miss recording something because I forget to change the channel between shows (we tape two shows back-to-back). We use the old fashioned method of starting the VCR manually and it works well with that one exception. But when will the time be right for TV on demand. When I miss a show can I get it sent to me? I have several times considered calling a friend on the West Coast to say … could you tape that in two hours when it comes on?
I read a few articles on TV on Demand that outline some of the problems and pitfalls — like revenue. I guess until those things get sorted out, I’ll have to just remember to change the channel when I hit record.
