Use Windows Media Center for the Ultimate DVR

Digital video recorders (DVRs) are becoming the device of choice for accessing television programming. A December, 2010 Nielsen report said that four of every 10 households used a DVR for some amount of time-shifted viewing. The majority of those DVRs, around 97% of them, reside in set top boxes rented or purchased from cable companies or satellite services.

What many don’t know is that millions of people have the ability to run their own HD DVR without expensive rental fees.
