I second that...I missed the last one that Steve did...The concept is almost like being able to record a television program, and being able to watch it at a more convenient time...I'm notorious for falling asleep in my chair while watching TV in the evening...There are times that I will schedule a recording even though I'm watching it, just so that I have some built-in insurance in case I fall asleep while watching it (which normally happens during those l o n g commercial breaks).
