It was when I was at college that I first read about a Digital Video Recorder. It was in a technology magazine, and I remember that it was going to get rid of all the cassettes for recordings. The new technology allowed you to record straight on to a hard drive.

Great idea I remember thinking to myself. No more running out of tapes all the time, no more having to fish around with fast forward and rewind options to try to find the program that I wanted to watch.

The ad went on to say that you could even record programs on the hard drive when you were not even at home. You could automatically program the Digital Video recorder to do this, and the quality of the recorded picture was much better than on a tape cassette.

But as the first Digital Video Recorders were selling for about $1000.00 at the time, it was hard to find that kind of money. But after a year or two the price did drop, and I bought my very first DVR, and the only thing that did bother me was the fact that you could only update your TV listings by ringing up for them.

But I must admit that was the only thing that did not impress me at the time; it was certainly a lot better than my Video Tape Recorder of the time.

Technology has moved on even further since its first inception, and a DVR can now hold even more programs than before.

It almost seems like an eternity ago when the DVR first came out, but it was not really that long ago. But like most of the other recent inventions, I can not imagine what life would have been like without it.

This is probably one of the best ideas in recent years, and I for one am glad to have a DVR in my house.
