I think you just need to embrace the whole PVR experience of recording the world and watching whenever you feel like it - most people would like a bigger hard drive (terrabyte yeah yeah) yet you sound like you dont want one at all
+ You do realise that you can start watching a recording whenever you like (even if it's just started)
+ There is no quality drop out on a recording because it records everything and thats what you're watching
+ Big benefit is that if you start watching 20 mins late you can scoot throu the adverts and still finish about the same time
+ You can also delete a whole series of recordings in one click
+ V+ will only buffer 90 mins without recording
+ V+ will dump the buffer if you switch channel or use a menu
+ Recording is totally FREE (doesn't cost any extra anyhow) since it records everything anyway
+ for this reason it shouldn't really be called 'recording' - it should be called 'storing'
= there is actually no benefit in not recording/storing a prog
