But it's very limited compared to a Replay. Be sure to check RCA's
website to make sure it does what you want it to.

You might consider a seperate DVD recorder that you connect to the DVR
like you would a VCR.

Actually I saw a write up for a unit that would store hundreds of DVDs
and let you access them all from the drives.

But it was a high end unit and cost something like $20,000. Aimed at
people with a LOT of money.

Don't know of any *reasonably* priced systems that will rip DVD to the
drive.
