Sometimes Nick wants to catch up on the last episode he recorded on his PVR, but unfortunately his wife is watching some dancing show on the main TV. Fortunately, his pay TV provider has enabled PVR stored content distribution throughout his home so he can still keep up to date and be able to join in the water cooler talks at work tomorrow.
