[quoteISTR there are Pioneer(?) combined DVD-Burner/Tivo units in the US, just none in the UK.


Yep, there may be other models too. My brother-in-law has one and it's great. I've even used it to convert VHS tapes to DVD. It works seemlessly with the Tivo software (actually, it's PART of the Tivo software). It will even let you rip DVD's to the HD, but it goes through a converstion process and the "highest" setting seems to take up more room than the original DVD. He says it's good for when he wants to rent a few DVDs but doesn't have time to watch them all. Once the DVD's are on your hard drive, it won't let you burn them to another DVD however.
