A good Tivo alternative

Pros: Easy to copy to DVD or VHS. Easy to digitize Camcorder.
Cons: Not totally intuitive. Requires reading (and re-reading) the manual
I think there are products out there that are easier to use, but overall I'm pleased with this purchase.
I read, and then re-read the manual. After the second reading I felt like understood only about 85% of what I wanted to understand. While the manual was complete (and I actually like reading technology manuals) there were a few unanswered questions that might remain unanswered.
Based on discussions with Tivo owners, this product has great features but is much harder to use. I dread having to train my wife how to record something.
But I hate subscription models for products that don't justify it. In my opinion Tivo doesn't justify their monthly charges.
Everything worked fine. Installation was straight forward. Video and sound quality are great. There are a handful of features I would like that don't exist, but I'm not complaining. This is a great solution for people who are migrating from a VHS environment.
