The Bottom Line	The Dish Network DTVPal DVR offers up bare-bones, over-the-air HDTV recording without a monthly fee, but it doesn't compare to subscription-based DVRs, and Dish's nonexistent return policy makes it a real gamble.	The Dish Network ViP622 and 722 are among the most fully featured and versatile high-def DVRs you can buy today.	Outstanding recording quality, tons of features, and a built-in digital TV tuner make the Panasonic DMR-EZ48VK an excellent all-purpose DVD and VHS recorder.	The Dish Network ViP622 and 722 are among the most fully featured and versatile high-def DVRs you can buy today.	The Philips DVDR3575H is pretty much your only choice if you want a DVD recorder with a hard drive these days, but it's not as good as it could be.
