Primarily we have been using the DVD recorder for TCM. Also for movies that are OOP or bare bones releases. I have a large VHS collection of music videos (I taped 120 minutes religiously on MTV) and am slowly sorting through and recording what i want to keep.
I thought I would use it for TV shows a lot, but I haven't yet (unless I can find my old tapes of The Idiot Box).

Yeah, I don't really use it much for TV shows either. I usually like to record a whole evening of TV. On my SVHS 6 hour recordings look great. On my DVD Recorder the are unwatchable.
DVD-R is fine for a two hour movie in SP mode on TCM, but terrible for lengths longer than that. At least to my eyes.

Actually I record stuff I wanna keep... hoping its not illegal, but some TV shows off HBO... and Movies, that were on HBO/MAX etc... that I would like to see again, a few times, but really wouldn't care enough about to buy the DVD.
ALSO... I have aspirations of transferring old videos of home movies, we don't have a lot... but I someday hope to put those on a DVD
