Screwed up taping the first half of Daniel Deronda Sunday night. These VHS tapes hold so little at the high-quality speeds. Juggling the incoming TV stream is becoming unmanageable. So far I’ve managed to avoid cable except when I was rooting for Jerry Brown on the road to the whitehouse in ’91 and ’92. Now, we’d need cable or a DirectTV-type satellite to make TiVo work, right? and it needs a phonejack to download the schedule? I have to study the pricepoints, think about this.

Nope. You can use Tivo from something as basic as standard TV (with rabbit ears antenna), cable, or Sat.
Yes, you need a phone hook-up to download the schedules for the older models. Newer modules can download over the internet. (You can also modify older models to do this as well)
Go for it! I am no longer a slave to the VHS tape! Letterman for breakfast! John Stewart whenever!
