Can't Record Pay-Per-View Movies?

OMG - TW drives me crazy! I tried to record 2 pay-per-view movies lately, and both were not recorded. The message in the Log is that box was unable to record the show. Called TW, and was told pay-per-view is not recordable "for security reasons"???? Is this true? I've been recording movies for years of course. Told them if it's a new policy, they better tell people and remove the "buy and record" option from Navigator. Just like talking to a brick wall.....The best part is - they are sending me a coupon for another movie - I'll just have to stay up and watch it if it's on at 3AM!

Why not watch it on-demand? Why wait till 3am.. They still have regular PPV type movies?

Well, in Erie, PA we have no type of VOD at all. Like livin in the last century....:-(

You can't record anything from pay perview onto a DVR. It' s just not Time Warner. I believe no Tv provider allows it.
