You don't have to, but you might find it comes in handy. My DVR lets me record two shows at once. But between new shows being added old ones being moved to new nights/times I sometimes find that there are three shows I want to watch in the same timeslot. It is nice to be able to switch over to the QAM tuner in my TV and watch one show live (albeit without surround sound) while recording the other two.
Regards,
