Editorial Review:
This El Gato EyeTV Hybrid Analog and Digital TV Tuner for Macintosh has been Factory-Refurbished to perform as new. It includes a 6 month warranty. EyeTV Hybrid is a highly acclaimed TV tuner for the Mac. It's ideal for anyone who wants the flexibility of a free over-the-air HDTV and analog solution together in one small USB stick. EyeTV Hybrid does the work of two EyeTV hardware products for the price of one. It delivers stunning quality free-to-air digital HDTV (ATSC) to your Mac as well as conventional analog TV via standard cable or antenna. EyeTV Hybrid records digital TV in one quality setting, Lossless. The digital stream is recorded unaltered for full quality digital content as encoded by the broadcaster. EyeTV also supports closed captioning and Dolby Digital sound. With its classic matte aluminum finish and surprisingly small size for such a versatile product, the EyeTV Hybrid is a perfect complement to the Mac. It features a USB 2.0 interface for the streaming of superior quality, uncompressed TV content to your Mac. EyeTV Hybrid is USB powered and therefore requires no external power supply, and contains a full-size coaxial plug. Includes Software and Installation instructions

Buy this and not the Pinnacle TV tuner stick! 
This item was a great buy! If you're looking at buying the Pinnnacle TV tuner for Mac, make a better investment and buy the Elgato EyeTV.

Great Product For the Price 
I am very pleased with my purchase of the Elgato EyeTV Hybrid. I liked everything about it. It's extremely easy to set up and record. I've never used another type of product like this so I can't really compare. That being said, all the other versions that work with macs seemed to be more expensive. The only thing that I had a problem with is the editing aspect of the software. It's very awkward and hard to use. However, you can export the video files to be used in various editing programs so it doesn't... more info

Great Product 
This product does everything I would was expecting and hoping for. Since owning it, I have stopped using a DVD recorder. Clearly, it does not have the automatic "find similar shows" that is included in Tivo, but the advantages outweigh this loss:
1) near limitless recording capacity - constrained only by capacity of hard discs you wish to hook up
2) very easy to jump/scroll/scrub through recordings to find a particular part. A bonus I was not expecting was the ability to transfer my old... more info
