No, it is actually recording to "the cloud", or a remote hard-drive. The recordings are as aired, complete with adverts. They may or may not be skippable, depending on the provider. They can't generally be pulled "at any time" but often have expiry dates. The expiry date is similar to bookmarks but programmes which aren't made available on demand can be recorded in the cloud.
