Open letter to Comcast - Your DVR SUCKS.
Comcast:
Your DVR -- more specifically, the Motorola DVR that features twin tuners and gobs of hard disk space, sucks.
It doesn't just suck a little bit. It sucks lots. Like, in a universe dominated by the cold, hard vacuum of deep space, it sucks. It sucks like a hoover. It sucks like a black hole. It sucks like a lamprey eel.
It is, to borrow a phrase from The Simpsons, the suckiest suck that ever sucked.
It's slow to respond to remote control commands. The user interface sucks. There's no way to easily export content to a computer or handheld device.
Please, please, please, Comcast. Make it suck less.
Comments
Even better, when you try to set up a series recording for the Simpsons, it insists on recording the episodes during the week. Also, the listings are all worthless and I have to continually double check for correctness.
Blah. Maybe the Verizon version will be better when FiOS comes this spring.

Well, at the very least, BitTorrenting will be faster!

I am hoping that since Cisco bought Scientific Atlanta, and Cisco wants to "cooperate with Apple" that Scientific Atlanta DVRs will stop sucking. Sucking is par for the course.
