I have had my TiVo digital recorder for a few years now and I still love it!!  I think back to the days where I would tape things on the VCR (always a pain in the butt!) and laugh at how easy it is to use my TiVo.  I love its basic functions like recording shows and fastforwarding through commercials, but I also love how it takes recording up a notch with its other features.  Season pass is awesome.  It will record all the new episodes of my favorite shows without me having to remind it weekly.  I also like the TiVo suggestions, which is where it will look at what I like to watch and record and record shows it thinks I will like.  I does a good job and I am always happy to find things I like to watch as a surprise when I get home. 

One problem I have with the TiVo is that it does not hook right into my cable box, so I have to use external sensors to change the channel.  They do not always work right, so the TiVo will say it recorded my show, but it didn't.  Very frustrating.
