Recently we started researching on DVD recorders in Japan.
The technology is AMAZING.
It's the first time, for instance, that I saw anything with a 1TB hard disk...
Plus a whole lot of interesting features:
The machine displays the TV programme schedule and makes recording super simple.
Some of them have a card reader that can read your memory stick directly allowing you to down load photos, music etc. from and to your mobile phone, camera etc.
You can also edit your photos, make slide shows etc. on the DVD players.
The DVD recorder can be linked to your personal computers.
You can preset the machine to record your programmes by sending an email to it from your mobile phone.
You can set the machine to record a whole series and not have to miss any episode.
You can set the machine to record the first episode of every new season's drama and it will then ask if you want to record the rest of the series after you have watched the first episode.
The machine can automatically detect a delayed telecast or extra-time of a football/baseball match and record accordingly.
You can even key in keyword and the machine will record all programmes with this keyword -e.g. keyword: "Tom Cruise" and all programmes in which Tom Cruise appear will be recorded.
AND...some machines will even analyse the programmes you have been recording and automatically record the programmes that you might like!
What else will appear next? It's exciting to see how human innovation and imagination can come up with all sorts of possibilities we never dreamt of in the past.
