OMG after I do all of this, I could have just paid for Netflix and spent that time actually watching content, or doing something other than nursing all this tech.

I abandoned MythTV and rented DVR from Comcast for just that reason.

Except Netflix has a limited catalog compared to being able to pirate pretty much everything ever made.
