I got my HR10-250 for $250 and then $200 worth of programming credits from DirecTV when I activated it. Net cost was $50. The hard drive died a year later and I did spend $99 upgrading to a 320GB drive. My HR20 DVR was ordered last week. Their first offer was $99 plus shipping. I asked if they could just give it to me. I ended up paying for shipping ($19.95) for a new HD DVR, a new dish and installation.
DVR rental from your local cable company is not expensive most of the time. You may pay $10/month but if it breaks (and all hard drives will), they will give you another.
