[Editors' Note: On November 1, 2006, iLounge published The 2007 iPod Buyers' Guide, with more than 30 brand new, capsule-sized product reviews - only for products we considered to be amongst the very best we've seen throughout the year. The short review below is excerpted from the Guide, which you can download here.]

Have a TiVo and a PC? Then you can have iPod-ready copies of your favorite TV shows, if you’re willing to wait through an automatic conversion process. Unlike Desktop Plus 2.3 (iLounge rating: C), a $25 program from TiVo, AutoPilot includes quality control settings and auto commercial removal features that make iPod videos look, convert, and run better. Speed remains an issue, but the price - free, but with a $20 requested donation - makes a good first impression.

A Note From the Editors of iLounge: Though all products and services reviewed by iLounge are "final," many companies now make changes to their offerings after publication of our reviews, which may or may not be reflected above. This iLounge article provides more information on this practice, known as revving.
