(direct tv)? What is the difference between tivo and dvr through direct tv? I have a direct tv, and I am not sure which service to buy. I heard that tivo is better then dvr. I am a little confused

Hi my name is what?,

I prefer TiVO because of simplicity of use. We love them. Their schedule is always correct because it is updated every day. I can program TiVO to record from out of town over the Internet. TiVO learns what you like and recommends shows that you might like. Often times we never would have known they were on. You can program an entire season of a given series with a single click and TiVO never forgets. You can tell TiVO you like someone or something and it will locate shows for you. For example if you tell it you like John Wayne it will watch for and record anything he is on.

I could go on and on about TiVO. There is one downside and that is the monthly (you can pay yearly if you want) fee.

Check the TiVO user forum here - TiVo Community - Forum Home and Store

I hope this helps you make the best decision.
