Query: You can do better!

I purchased this and it worked properly for 13 months until the clock mechanism stopped working, which rendered the programmable recording functionality useless. It still plays DVDs, but obviously I can get a DVD player for less than and DVD recorder. The unit is slow... in every aspect and really isn't that great.In closing, if your buying this to record TV you can do better. Go for a hard drive based recorder that can give you > 30 hours of media. This thing can only give you 6 at best.
