Correct.

Record 1 hr program using myth and your compression of choice
filesize * 80 =   ~space required for 80 hours.

Sorry. I don't mean to be a smartass.  I was born that way. :)

MPEG2 @ 12Mbit @720x480 will take A LOT more space that low res DivX or
nu(i)pple.

This is more of a poll to see what kind of storage you all have on your myth
boxes, and also the total amount of recording hours you've got, whether it
be on one box or several boxes networked together.

TIVO boasts being able to record up to 80 hours.  What would it take to do
80 hours on a Myth Box?  (I guess this would also depend on compression
methods used)
