We bought it and a full warrenty for it I think from the Sat. company..... The rental is five bucks a month.... But its HD and you have to include that for another 5 bucks a month....... Then the 5 bucks a month for free maintance.... But it sure is nice to pause live TV and record shows to see later.... Our oldest records all the Days shows while off at college and wayches them when she comes home for weekends.....

I live in montreal where everything is way too expensive. And I have cable, but with more channels than regular cable because we have a special device. The thing is called Illico.
