Z ... I'm afraid you are right. My DVD/VCR combo just died so I was looking to replace it with a DVR, with a hard disk, that can record in HD and doesn't require a monthly fee. From my limited research so far, it looks like you have to rent Comcast's DVR box to be able to record in HD (and it doesn't appear to play DVDs). I don't record enough shows to justify a monthly expense.

Anybody else have any suggestions?
