PERFORMANCE
TiVo offers some features that I've yet to see in a cable-leased box. One is remote scheduling by computer. For example, one day at work I realized I had forgotten to record the AMC series Mad Men, and I knew I wouldn't be home in time to do it. By logging onto MyTiVo, I was able to view my program guide and set the recording. TiVo even sent me a confirming email.
