When you say DVR to me, I think of the hardware device that is in most living rooms around the country allowing us to record our favorite shows and skip commercials. TVGuide.com has long offered an online listings guide and it has now announced a new online DVR.

The DVR is apparently more like an online video aggregator that allows the user to select the shows they are interested in and watch them all from the TVGuide.com website. The DVR will send you messages when new episodes are posted of your favorite show.

This is actually a pretty cool service if you have a HTPC in your living room or if you watch TV on your PC a lot. It would be great to have your shows come to you rather than needing to go to the network’s website.
