It makes a sweet little MythTV extender.
These little extender things are one of the key advantage
that all the other PVR apps have. You can either build them
yourself or buy them readymade. Instead of spending X for
every TV you might want to access DVR features, you spend
a much smaller amount and lose no flexibility whatsoever.
Tivo should have come out with an extender and not bothered with this.
