Even a man can use it

Direct tv group HD/DVR ----  Best thing we ever purchased.  The DVR is outstanding.  Waiting for all of your programs to come on at a certain time is now in the past.  It's great to record shows / specials for the whole week and even series / Watch when you want to.  Not because you have to.  It's Great and We're waiting on our new upgrade.  Highly recommend this item to anyone.

I've become an okay user at the Dish, but Direct TV will always be my favorite.
