Looking for a decent TV tuner...

[Josh378]

Ok, I got my Class schedule...now I have a problem....


My class time is covering all of my favorite shows, so I need to pick up a cheap tuner...I don't care about the picture...it doesn't have to be in HD nor the sound, as long as I can hear the characters on the recorded show..but the thing is...I'm afraid to buy one of these:

But I don't want to go over $50 with my purchase, and I was wondering what should I do?

Help me out here, or even if there's a better deal, let me know, thanks!!!

the main thing you should care about, does it support reception of stereo sound.

I'm pretty sure that is a given if you are buying new hardware at this point, but it is worth checking on just to be safe. The other big factor is how well it supports the software you care to do your recording with. It took me a couple of tries before I wound pleased, settled on Media Center and a Theater550 card.
