I'm ready to take the step into Tivo, but I'm not really sure where to start. I currently live pretty far from civilization, so I'd like to do my ordering online if at all possible. If you guys think I should try to call a nearby satellite company and buy off of them, let me know if there are any advantages to this.
I've currently got a basic DirecTV setup (RCA dish and receiver), and I'm not sure what components I'll have to upgrade for Tivo. I'm assuming it's only the receiver, but online most of the receivers alone cost more than the package deals with a new satellite dish. And that's another problem; if I do end up buying online, what's the best retailer?
Also, I'm not looking for the top-of-the-line Tivo receiver, but I'd like one with decent storage space and features (preferably supporting Dolby Digital). Any suggestions on both brand and model?
Any help (and any other suggestions that I didn't address in my questions)would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
