With BH I had 2 DVRs,only one could record and it could only record 2 shows at a time and I could not watch a third show, I had to watch one of the 2 that was recording or go to another TV. The 3rd box I had was a small (not DVR) box that was not compatible with the DVRs. It had a separate guide, channels were different, no "on demand" and I could not watch what I recorded and less than half as many channels. And for these 3 boxes I was paying $319.00 a month, although that did include $32 for the home security system.

Might want to investigate current technology before you compare to old technology. BH offers the boxes you describe as base units today, but they have boxes that record 6 at a time, have on demand and a bunch of other capabilities. We have two of the boxes (my wife and I have different viewing habits). The have whole house capability where you can watch anything anywhere but that doesn't fit our lifestyle. We also have phone and internet (110mbs) and don't approach $319.00. There service has been outstanding although I have only called them twice and one of those times was because a landscaper cut their access cable. Not sure how long ago you had BH but what you had is ancient history, not current availability.
