Get DirecTV with DVR. It's actually cheaper than digital cable with HD and DVR service (at least here in NY).
I have FiOS, which I do love!!
I'll watch both simultaneously. Having multiple TVs in the same room rocks. 
I guess I could watch one thing on the tv and the other on the computer and the last on the radio (listening of course). Boy, that would drive me over the edge! AV overload!!
