Podcast #1217: The DVR is Dead
Friday, 5 September, 2025
On this week’s show we take some time off but still give you a great show. In addition to reading your emails and the news, we do a post mortem on the DVR. News: Netflix unveils the future of streaming with a massive new approach Dolby Vision 2 Is Coming Netflix launches new feature letting customers clip top scenes Other: Bendable Screens TV Tracker: Renewed and Canceled Shows The DVR is Dead We did a show back in 2009 where we highlighted an article that discussed the end of the DVR era. We added our thoughts on the subject and I did an analysis of what it would cost to just buy the shows I watched vs recording them on the DVR. Streaming services were just coming on the scene and we had no idea what was coming down the road. In this episode I go back and discuss what we said back then and how it actually turned out. As always thanks for listening to and supporting our podcast.
