A live DVR for a handful of broadcast networks... So it's nothing like an actual DVR like TiVo.

As I posted elsewhere, it works with cable TV too, if you get a HDHomerun Prime with a cablecard, but with a bunch of caveats due to enforced DRM.

Also Plex DVR is a true DVR-- it will actually record those programs to disk, not just watch them live with trick play. It couldn't do live TV before, that's what was just added.
