90% of my non-sports viewing is now via DVR. I have 6-8 shows that I like to catch each week. They are all set to record on the DVR and I usually watch my favorite 3-4 within a day or two, the rest whenever I'm bored and can catch up. Far better than having to mess with VCR tapes.
It also amazes me how I could stand watching regular SD shows on relatively tiny TVs (especially sports) just a few short years ago. 3-4 years ago the "big" TV was 36" and the other one was 30". Now the "little" TV in the bedroom is a 50" plasma and the "big" one is 60".
