...Or should you stick to your shrink?
Who knew? Throw away all your ideas of what makes relationships work--according to a new study [PDF], a digital video recorder (DVR) helps keep that flame alive just as well as anything else. The study, commissioned by NDS, a manufacturer of (surprise, surprise) DVRs, among other things, took a poll of 1,000 DVR owners, and most (79 percent in the US) claimed that their relationships have improved in the time that they've owned the devices.
It's easy to see how that could be possible, though. For example, DVRs let you record your favorite shows to view later, so you're not glued to your screen when you should be doing, well, other stuff. Most DVR sets also let you watch a different program while recording another, so if both your shows are at the same time, you won't be bickering. And we all know that an absence of bickering promotes cordial relations.
The study also mentioned that 80 percent of the respondents agreed that their DVRs were the most important bit of technology after their cell phones. Really, now.
Read carefully and understand what awareness does TechTree really wants to creat!!

It seems that Techtree has been hired by TataSky and BigTV in promoting DVR devices. Both the companies are planning to launch their DVR services soon and they are preparing the grounds for the release. This Techtree article it seems is a commercial to create public awareness!
