"A DVR recorder does seem as if it would be of value...".
Why would it seem to be of value "given the atrocious programming" and why would you subject yourself to that on both "cable and a dish"?
"...isn't "DVR recorder" repetitious?".
Yes. Afirmative. Bingo. Correctamundo. Spot on. You got it.
"Doesn't DVR stand for digital video recorder?"
Again, yes. But that's why people call it a DVR, not a DVR recorder.
"...can a DVR be added without a cable or dish system knowing about it?".
Damn straight it can, but for reasons I won't go into.
Follow Ups:
Good point about the atrocious programming. Oft times there are programs on when I don't wish to watch. With a DVR I could save the decent programs and watch them at leisure.
The reason I asked about DVR recorder is that I have often seen that cited. It seemed silly to me, but then we're dealing with pop culture and technology.
Thanks for the clarification. I look forward to hiding a DVR from my cable/dish system.
It depends on your landline telephone provider and availability of the product in your area. If you're in an area serviced by AT&T, check to see if U-verse is available (just click the link below).
I'm stuck in the nightmare that is Verizon. I long for the days when AT&T was my phone company.
