Don't expect an Apple DVR anytime soon

The reaction to the new Mac minis almost universally was, 'It is great, but what it really needs is a DVR.' Well, Larry Angell, over at iLounge, just has to go and burst our bubble. He suggests that perhaps you shouldn't hold your breath waiting for a DVR solution from Apple anytime soon.

Why not? Because, Larry posits, Apple is selling TV shows on the iTunes Music Store, why would they enable Mac users to easily record the same shows that you can buy for them for free, and get them at a much higher resolution to boot.

Depressing, but it does make sense. Head on over to iLounge and read the whole thing for yourself.

Tip of the Day

To get an instant map to any address, just go to your Address Book and right click on the address field of any one of your contacts and select "Map Of." The address will then be revealed in Google Maps on Safari. You can do the same if a data detector determines there is an address in an e-mail in Mail.
