That's the way to do it. The disks are always spinning and the
cable is always screwed on. It might as well be recording.
Recording more stuff with a DVR than you could ever watch and
then choosing from among your favorite shows is a much better
use of TV time than channel surfing hoping to find something
'good' on.
