Wouldnt you like to have your own huge collection of movies at your disposal, for you to select from any time you wanted to? While other service providers howl about their fantastic on demand pay per view, that they intend on milking you out of much money as they can with. The nice folks at DirecTV give you a free digital video recorder and encourage you to record any and all of their great movie programming, including their reasonably priced pay per view service, that brings hundred of recording opportunities to your home each month.

Just think of all the choices you will have to select from, when you have the full one-hundred hours of memory in your DVR, loaded up with all your favorites in classics and new releases. Who doesnt love those cheesy old westerns, where the good guys wear white hats and the bad guys wear black ones. The rustlers and the round-ups and the damsels in distress and the six shooters, that never run out of bullets.

No one ever gets killed in them either, because no matter how shot up someone gets, they just wrap a scarf around it and keep on ridin down the trail. Those old gangster flicks are another kick. James Cagney and Edward G. Robinson set the standard for true gangster etiquette in them, with their sneers and tough talk. There was always a boss that everyone blindly followed in them. How he got appointed is any ones guess.

Those old beach party dance movies are always a gas. Have you ever walked in sand, let alone danced in it? I hope they paid the talent well in those movies because they earned every penny dancing in sand. Then there are classics that programmers just dont have the good taste to feature any more, so you are going to have to record them if and when they do come on.

Its a Mad Mad Mad World featured virtually every top comedian that was working when they made the movie and it seems as though there is some kind of competition between them in the movie, to see who could be the most nutty. The recording feature in the top of the line Hughes receiver that the folks at DirecTV give to you and install at your home free of charge is a one touch, easy to operate function.

Instant programming search lets you locate a movie by simply entering it into the search function by its name, or the name of a leading actor in the flick and with a press of a button, it appears on your TV screen, with the date and time it is showing.

Press the one touch recording function and you are good to go, because it will automatically be recorded when it comes on, whether you are home or not and it will even record while you are watching another channel. So if you want to dump your money into on demand pay per view, feel free to. If you would rather have your own personal film archive of all your favorites though, look to the folks at DirecTV to hook you up.
