ReplayTV developer goes PVR cold turkey

One of the developers of ReplayTV was kinda sorta put in the situation to go a year without a DVR and see how his life would be affected. I can't disagree more with his assessment that the main thing he misses is the guide. If my MCE goes down, I'm close to tears having to sit through all those commercials, and definitely missing a lot of shows that I have NO IDEA when they're on.

Lemoore found that his chronic channel surfing had completely disappeared and he had no interest in watching programs unless he knew what was on first. Of course, satellite and digital cable services usually include program guides, but the second thing Lemoore found was that he wasn't interested in appointment television anymore.
