I had a minor disaster the other day when the recorder for my Satellite TV service ate it's storage drive. What was really annoying is that I had many hundreds of hours of recordings on it, mostly of shows I hadn't seen yet. I collect them to use when the regular channels all go into summer vacation with no new shows on. A big part of getting used to it is, I record virtually everything I watch, even if just to watch it an hour later, so that I can jump over commercials and i.e. watch a 2 hour movie in 90 minutes. Another thing I miss is the ability to 'rewind' even a live show if I miss something and want to see or hear it repeated or pause the show to read something they showed too briefly in print to read properly. Anyways, I should have a replacement unit by Monday (it blew Wednesday night) and the new fall season is starting next week so I should have more things to watch I haven't seen before. Another help at this point is Rogers have added 4 feeds of the Starz Network which show mostly older shows and lots of movies all commercial free. Tonight I watched Stephen King's Christine for the 2nd or 3rd time and, another that's so well known I thought I must have seen it at some point (but apparently hadn't) The Notebook. --- * SLMR Rob * Got my tie caught in the fax...
