I've been OTA for 11 years. My last TiVo croaked on me last September.

I cannot get a new one. They're not available... Anywhere! I even tried to bid on one on E-bay.

WTF!

Just grab an old PC, slap a TV tuner in it and record away. Dirt cheap.

We just sold a Tivo Premiere (ATSC 1.0 OTA Tivo) last month on ebay, so they are out there.

Ha, yeah... I'm not paying $300+ for a unit in unknown condition.
