"The Philips Personal TV Receiver costs $499 for 14 hours of recording and $999 for for 30 hours" The add brings two questions to mind. First, why the doubling of price for the 30 hour version? Isn't it just a higher capacity DD? The difference between a 4g and 8g DD is not double and it certainly is not $500. Secondly, shouldn't these be low performance drives? I can not see where the speed for a high performance drive would be a benefit.
