Are you still recording your favorite shows on your VCR? If so, I wouldn't be surprised if you are using an abacus to figure your taxes and a coal furnace to hear your apartment. VCR recording is a way of the past. DVR is the wave of the present and the future.
It's just plain easier.
Many of the cable companies and satellite providers that offer services in most apartments, now offer you a Digital Video Recorder (DVR) to record your favorite shows when you are away from the apartment or asleep. The DVR is not only a video recorder, but it's also your cable box so there is no need for extra components. Some of the companies will even include it for free if you simply ask, but even if they don't, the others are pretty affordable.
You may be reading this thinking, "Of course I am using DVR now!!!" and if so...good for you. There are surprisingly a number of folks out there who are still stuck reeling those video cassettes.
A DVR also helps reduce clutter in your apartment as the shows are saved on the hard-drive on the unit much like on a computer, so you have no bunch of tapes to deal with and organize. It's just so much easier and can make you apartment life a zillion times better.
You'll never miss another show, get the tape all jammed into the VCR, and you'll step forward into the 21st century. So get rid of your VCR and abacus and grab a DVR!
