WINDVR by InterVideo \n\nWinDVR gives you high-quality digital recordings of your favorite shows plus the ability to pause, instant replay, and skip commercials on Live TV. Just combine it with a TV tuner (PCI, AGP, or USB) for advanced TV features without the monthly fees! Integrated Internet-based Electronic Program Guide (EPG) by TitanTV lets you easily find your favorite shows, then schedule them for recording or viewing. Realtime software MPEG-2 encoding (the same compact format used for DVDs) delivers cinema quality video with modest hard disc requirements. Digital video camcorder support - capture video from a DV camcorder via IEEE 1394 support. These files can be captured as AVI or MPEG files, and DV AVI files can be converted back to DV tape for archiving. File conversion - convert your video files between MPEG, VCD, SVCD, DVD, and DV files. Combined with WinDVR's authoring and burning functions, you can create personal VCDs, SVCDs, and DVDs that can be shared with friends and family.

If you want to record and watch TV on your PC then there is only one name that comes to mind, Hauppauge.\n\nI use the Win TV PVR USB2 where I have connected the VCR and convert all my old videos to digital.\n\nHave Fun!!!\n\nBattery Wizard

Buy a Go video VCR/DVD-R component combo. It's easy to use.

I've been wondering the same thing and came across this cool device called a 'Slingbox' that would allow you to watch your TiVo, Cable, DVR (and tv, dvds, etc) across the internet on any computer.\n\nhttp://www.slingmedia.com

Add a video capture card to your computer.  Or you can pay someone to do it.

I would buy from a reputable brand.  Any of the big names would be fine.  Look for these specs:  \n\nPentium 4 processor 2.5GHz or above\n512MB DDR-RAM or above (improve this first)\n40GB HDD or above\n17" CRT monitor\nCD/DVD drives.  Consider DVD-RW if you think you might like to burn DVDs.\n\nIf you have money to spare, a Media Center PC has high end components and lets you record TV on your computer, just like a TiVo.  One last component to consider -- onboard video and sound should be fine, but you can always splurge for a graphics card.

I use internet TV software and it is great - AVerTV. We also use ESS.tv and Streamwire (just google them) where you pay a small fee and get to watch lots of shows.
