Jim - it can depending on whether your cable system will support it, how your cable system encrypts its programming. So the answer is --- it depends. :D There's a Tivo specifically designed for this - the dual tuner Tivo which will allow you to record two programs at the same time - but still has the same restrictions as above.

And of course, there's the mack superdaddy Tivo of them all - the new Tivo HD series 3. Just got it installed with two Cablecards last week - now I can use a Tivo to record in high-def, life is good!
