Movies, TV, and 21st Century

I've only got a 15 year old "console" type television and a discount DVD player at my house. I don't even have a high-quality sound system... But...

My friend Justin built his own "TiVo" machine using software called "Show Shifter" -- we had a copy of XP Media Center at the office and we're going to try that now... You'd think, as high tech as I like to think I am that I'd have some sort of system for recording from television. Generally, if I can't catch it at the time of broadcast, I don't see it.

How soon will it be until traditional media is surpassed by on-demand content from the internet? I dunno.
