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

byhwz1 Jan 8, 2004
51 Helpfuls 52 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Watch shows when you want, skip commercials, easy to use and set up, good picture/audio
Cons Annoying service plan
Recommended it? Yes

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 new device.

Yet, I quickly became a... Read full 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. rebate from TIVO. That translated into a final price... Read full review »

Pros Easy to use!
Cons Cost

I have been a Tivo fan for several years. I love it!! This has certainly changed my families life.

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

bysmoknbobjd Jan 17, 2008
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros inexpensive (if you shop around), intuitive controls, time-saver
Cons does not permit use with 5.1 surround sound, only stereo
Recommended it? Yes

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 show schedules, etc. Well, customer service at Tivo...

The benefits of digital cable without the cost

bywvhokie55 Mar 16, 2007
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Nice looking, feature packed, and fairly inexpensive.
Cons Software updates; long hold times for tech support.
Recommended it? Yes

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 is really expensive. After living without a DVR for... Read full review »

Setup is NOT for the novice user

byjcwillia Aug 6, 2006
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Good cable selection, great walk through, solid internet support
Cons PC integration is horribly unfriendly and my cable box was not exactly made for this
Recommended it? Yes

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 so good, and there are not other products on the... Read full review »
