Why not both?

I would rather have DVR than VoD, but that's just me. I'd really have to see what they have on the servers to decide for sure. However, what good is a good action movie without DD5.1 or DTS encoding? AFAIK, Comcast does not support either of those audio streams where I am.

Now then, why would they limit themselves to one or the other? Why not go with both? After all, they are the greedy pig, aren't they? With DVR and VoD, I could get that movie I want and record it for later use or to make sure I didn't miss some dialogue. Would make more sense to do that I think.

About the only thing I want for Christmas is a DirecTiVo. I can't wait to be able to watch my favorite shows without commercial interruption. And if I need to go to the kitchen, I can pause it. I can't wait! And to the delight of DirecTV, I MIGHT order more than the 1 PPV I've ordered this year. I might order more than the 3 I've ordered in 2+ years. If I could watch it over and over with the same audio encoding, that would rock. I've been good this year, hopefully Santa will treat me right when it comes to this. LOL!
