You can certainly purchase television shows off of iTunes or look for videos on the net that you can download (but of course then you’d have to deal with converting the content to the proper format) but shouldn’t there be something simpler? Back in the good old days, one would simply record television shows onto a VHS tape for later viewing. Couldn’t someone come up with something similar to that? Well guess what folks – someone actually has. It’s called the Neuros MPEG4 Video Recorder 2 and it’s made by the good folks over at Neuros Audio. Think of the MPEG-4 Video Recorder 2 as a digital VCR device. This small and simple device connects to your analog video sources and captures video into a digital format using the MPEG-4 codec. Once in this format, you can easily transfer the videos to the Apple iPod video or the Sony PSP."</i> <br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/neuros.jpg" /><br /><br />This is a very cool idea. Set it just like a VCR, pop in your memory stick and tape your favorite shows then take them mobile on your PSP. I seem to recall a similar device coming out from Sony, but you can bet it will probably go for more than the $149 that this is listing for and I bet an offering from Sony won't bypass Macrovision, so you would not be able to use it to transfer DVD's like you would with this.
