It's odd to see all the folks here who don't watch any live TV... We've been using MythTV for a while (a year perhaps) and still watch live tv.. Fact is there are very few shows we watch on TV anyway, we use live (not through the mythbox..just regular) as it's easier to bounce around the channels and see if there's anything interesting on (usually not).

For us Myth is a super-duper recording device and we don't miss the few shows we enjoy.. Of course we're borderline dump-TV entirely anyway ;-)
