RE: ShowShifter vs. TiVo

["Nikola Kasic" <nikola@xxxxxxx>]

Amar,
What's the picture quality?
I also have spare Pentium III 500 sitting around, which I planned to sell.
I
already have Hauppauge WinTVGo TV tuner card. I also have ATI based VGA
with
TV out (Super something - forgot the brand). I also have DigiGuide
subscription which costed me ?5/year compared to ?120 on TiVo or ?200
for
box life.
If I hack TiVo with TurboNet (extra ?50), I'lll break my warranty and
if
something goes wrong, my subscription is gone too.
So, from my point of wiev, ShowShifter has many advantages, but againg
I
would like to know about picture quality? Mark?
My SWMBO knows how to use DigiGuide, so that's not an issue either.
So, I'm just waiting for you TiVo lovers to give me reasons :-).
Nik

I think I'm qualfied to answer this, I built a PC just to use for SS and
ran
it for months.  However, as has been well documented by a certain
Scotish
bloke, I'm afraid there is simple no comparrison between the two
systems.
TiVo every time.

I am considering buying TiVo.
However, I discovered Showshifter recently. Now I would like to compare
those two products:
