I am thinking of getting one just because it sounds a lot easier for making sets instead of burning to RW disks. I got a extra large paycheck last week for working Labor Day so I am looking to get a good one, but is it really worth it? And would it work with digital cable?

Well, I ended up buying one today. I got a WinTV-PVR 150 from Hauppauge. It is really easy to use so far. I need to get a second digital cable box, but the regular cable comes in better than on my cheap TV-lol I will fool around with it next time I am not at school or work, but it was real easy to set up so so far I am very pleased. :)

Will these work with satellite tv too?

I'm not sure, I have never owned a satelite before so I don't even know how those work
