I thought I wanted to get a hard drive DVD recorder for a remote bedroom and hoped it would have some of the functionality of our HD-DVR and three ReplayTVs, namely a program guide for browsing shows and selecting what to record in context. However, I've seen that there are a number of users who are adamantly against an EPG.
What are the reasons to avoid units with a program guide?
If there are so many people against the EPG, why should I buy a unit that has one?
If I want an HDD DVD recorders with a program guide, which ones don't offer it?
Thanks!

[ edit ] I should clarify that this unit just has analog cable going into it - no cable box to IR blast. [ /edit ]
