Any way to record from TIVO onto permanent media?

Plug a drive into small dish receiver, fill 'er up and than move the drive to my PC or MAC?

I kind of miss being able to make permanent copies of stuff, like in the old VCR days.

A standalone DVD recorder. You'll probably need a stabilizer or TBC to remove the copy protection.

Thanks, David.
No way to hook up to USB and do a 'data dump'? No way to get at the file system of the Dish box?
A DVD recorder will make an OK copy, I guess, but I'd like to go all digital if possible.
If it helps or hurts, I've got a Mac computer.

If the content is SD you can do it, if it's HD it can't be done. Just use a search engine and you should find what you need if it's SD. You'll have to remove the HDD, I don't think it can be done USB unless you unload it to an external HDD.

I've seen people say it looks the same PC or DVD recorder.
