Women Control the DVR

Posted by Zonk on from the true dept.

JeiFuRi writes "While men normally hog the remote, a new study commissioned by Lifetime suggests that women are more likely to be in charge of their DVRs . Results from a survey of 1000 married woman say that 48 percent made the decision to purchase a DVR on their own and 55 percent claimed they understood the system more than their husband. Three-quarters of the women surveyed said that the reason they fell in love with DVR is that they are extremely intuitive and much easier than a VCR." The study also found some interesting things about DVR users' ad-watching habits.

    Women control the DVR 'cause us guys are out working while they're watching 'Oprah.' Then they use the DVR to catch 'Ellen' when they're napping.
