ElGato's EyeTV 200 and 500 are some seriously nice products, for folks who are willing to pay decent money for good products.

A Mac media software product showing what appears to be a screenshot of C-SPAN being tuned in by an UltimateTV unit.  It's a discontinued Microsoft-based PVR product developed for DirecTV.
