I agree completely, but I still like to actually see something which is why I really only use the Mythbox as a high-end VCR. While the descriptions are OK, often I find that I'll watch something purely based on what's on the screen that catches my eye. For example, History Channel descriptions are great and I'll watch something based on that. However, some of those other randome music/entertainment channels, like the digital cable channels just catch my eye and the descriptions aren't great. -Khanh
