I have been a long time DirecTivo person (HR10-250). Now, I've moved into a new SF Bay Area home where I can no longer receive any OTA HD locals. I need to choose between Comcast and an Series 3 Tivo or Dish and a VIP622.
Here are my concerns I'd love to hear feedback on:
1) I've never found any other DVR nearly as convenient, reliable, and pleasant to use as Tivo. Is the ViP622 as good or nearly as good as the HR10-250? Any former HDTivo people made the switch?
2) I'm concerned about the quality of HD and the prevalance of satellite HD-lite broadcasting. It was a problem with DirecTv. Is it a problem for Dish?
Dish clearly has (for the moment) the greatest number of HD stations, so it is quite tempting to make the switch with the current freebies I could get.
