Thanks all and particularly Gary for your comprehensive reply. I am thinking about getting a Topfield dual tuner 500GB model. So far as the advert skip facility, even if this is not provided specifically I think I read that a fast foward of x30 is specified which should be quick enough to skip quickly through those adds that you don't want to view. Also, I understand that the ability of the broadcasters to prevent recording of certain programs is a future facility and it is hard to see that the broadcasters would be doing this that much. (Still better keep the old VCR on standby!).
PVRs certainly are a great advance on VCRs and the prices are now very tempting.
Thanks Michael for the heads up re TiVo.
Cheers Peter
