    To build off of Josh’s response:

    I moved from BeyondTV to WMC specifically to get rid of cable boxes and the pains of IR Blasters/Serial Tuning. Could not be happier (and the wife likes that we don’t miss recordings any more).

    Storage Pool: You can use a windows service called WMC Recording Storage Pooler (http://exdeus.home.comcast.net/~exdeus/WMCRecordingStoragePooler/) to build a pool of drives to record to.  I use this and it works seamlessly.

    DRM and Moving Files: I use a Ceton card with my FIOS tv service and have only run into DRM problems with the occasional  Jeopardy episode.  For some reason it gets set to Copy Once on average once every 3-4 weeks.  Otherwise I can move my recordings to any computer in the house.  This works great for my 3-year old when we travel.  I just throw a bunch of episodes on the laptop and go.
