Apple TV is not a DVR.. or is it?

David Zatz says Apple TV is not a DVR... but is it? OR to ask the question differently, could it be made one easily? The answer is yes. Using Eye TV and the newest software release, it's pretty easy to create a system that will automatically record TV shows and transcode them and put them in iTunes ready for Apple TV. Not a stretch to think there are plenty of services Apple could deliver through Apple TV in the future. That said, we're not talking about a competitor for the set top box for most consumers, it's something that complements it.
