I'm not, but that couldn't matter less in this discussion.

I have never said don't watch it live. My (and others) point has always only been that, instead of setting a reminder, you simply set it to record.

Why? Just set it to record instead. I really don't see a problem here. When you set a reminder, you sit down and watch it, right? Well, just set it to record and do the same thing.
Why would I need to record it , if I intend to watch it live ?

My take on reminders is this, say tonight's football comes on at 7.30pm and Im intending to watch it live but happen to be catching up on some news , I can set a reminder which automatically alerts me that the football is about to start which I can select and it turns over for me and effectively stops me clock watching.
