Panny DMRE-85-HS vs Pioneer DVR-533-HS (1 Viewer)

[Andrew Beckmen]

The Panny is about 100 bucks more, but boasts a bigger HDD and I can buy it in a local store, whereas the Pioneer (which a friend of mine has and swears by) I would have to buy online. So I am leaning toward the Panny. My main concerns are how many programs you can set up to record (Like how VCRs only have like 8...I crave more) and the editing system (to cut out commercials).

Thanks.

I have the Panny, and I've NEVER run into a limit on the number of shows I can set to record. The most I've ever set up for is 20!
