    Getting programs from DVR onto my iPad?

    I have some shows on my DirecTV DVR that I'd like to be able to watch on my iPad while I am on an airplane. Any search that I do for this topic only gives me results from 2006 and 2007 and is only for iPods. Obviously the technology has changed a lot since then. Is there a reliable way to...

    Switching from DirecTV to Cablevision...?

    I'm really thinking about all aspects of making the switch. I know I give up BBCA and also NFL Network. Hadn't thought about RFD, but that's really OK. (We do think Big Joe's Polka Show is a hoot, though...) We'd also give up the XM/Sirius channels. The lesser HD channels, like those...

    Switching from Direct to CV? The CV DVR?

    My family and I have been on DirecTV for 7 or 8 years now, and we're pretty tired of their empty promises about HD. I spoke to an operator at CV today, and was assured that after the initial year, CV will cost me a little less than DTV for a little more than what I have now. I am good with...
