The price of ReplayIn reading

The price of Replay

In reading more about Replay I came across their pricing.  A 40 hour model is $699.  Not a bad price, it is close to the equivilant of TiVo with a lifetime subscription (Replay doesn't have a monthly subscription fee).  The thing I don't get is the price jump from a 40 hour Replay to 80 hour to 160 hour to 320 hour.

Anyone out there have a Replay? Is the difference between all these models just more disc?  If so, $1000 to go from an 80 hour to a 320 hour just seems obscene.  Disk is obscenely cheap these days.  You can get an IBM 60 gig drive for probably around $140 retail.  And I'm sure they aren't putting like 4 or 5 60 gig drives.

So why so expensive?  Is it worth THAT much?
