point made and recieved. While on the subject have you done any research
into the new drive storage format? Perpendicular recording instead of
writting it flat. I have seen several highend systems that have 1TB HDD
with the current storage medium, can you fathoum the amount of storage you
would be able to achive with the same amount of platters and almost same
size drive. Vista will take advantage of it and Tivo's will become useless
as people use they computer systems and hook up external HDD's and record
every thing on PPV, the RIAA is going to have a new field to sue. Many
today use Media Center and external HDD's very much the same way but they
fill up fast, with endless storage, I think the price for T.V. service
will rise and PPV will be as much as going to the movies.
