Well, my old video cassette recorder finally died! So I guess it's time to upgrade to one of these new fangled PVR freeview recorders.
Parents have Sky+, but I don't watch enough TV to justify spending extra on getting an additional sky+ box. I mainly used my vcr to record the occasional interesting program on the TV which I would otherwise miss if I was out.

My thoughts were to replace my DVD player with a DVD recorder with built in freeview tuner - I don't record enough to justify a full blown PVR.

Any suggestions for around £100-£150?
 
Do PVRs need to be connected to the mains 24/7? I prefer keeping things switched off at night as I'm a light sleeper and the pvr / dvd recorder would be in the bedroom.
