Technically they do not record, they just point your account at the cloud storage for future watching. The downside to this is say you record a movie, it may become unavailable from your recorded episodes when the movie becomes unavailable for some unknown reason. For example, I had Citizens Kane DVR’d… it was there for a while, then gone for months and then it came back. First world problems…

It’s very easy to go to a series and see latest to oldest shows and it also shows which ones you watched. Also, the word “New” appears on the shows icon to see when a new episode appears.
