In that case, get one modified knowing that someday in the future, for
a host of possible reasons, you'll likely have to buy an HD-PVR (or by
then, perhaps an equivalent product).  Maybe David George's MJPEG2000
"pvrcompanion" box will be out by then.  In the mean time, you'll be
getting the best quality you can.
