DVR?

Comcast is aggressively pushing their DVR service. Their hold message says "if you want to record the Olympics, be sure to double-check the times, because they may change, so you'll have to reset your DVR."

I was scratching my head the whole time.

Why can't I just tell my computer "record all the javelin events" and have it do the work of recording the right thing at the right time, without my having to make changes?

Worse still, why do I have to record anything in the first place? Why not just let me pull any event I want whenever I want on my computer?

It's not like the technology to do all this isn't available already.
