Another Mac Tax. Elgato’s EyeTV Goes To 2.0.

I’ve been an Elgato customer since they launched their first cable TV tuner for the Mac. I upgraded to EyeTV 200 for Firewire TV and loved it.

EyeTV’s software is excellent, best of breed, and shows up in other products. That’s a good sign.

A bad sign is the annual tax. Not just Apple’s annual iLife tax, or the new Mac OS X tax, but a tax nonetheless.

If you’re new to TV on your Mac, Elgato’s EyeTV 200 is a Firewire recording device that takes cable TV in, records.... (excerpted).
