There is a glimmer of hope...
A far cry from plug and play but recording in high and standard definition is available in an 'open source' format.
The Silicondust brand, HD HomeRun tuner will allow you to record to your computer hard drive. Depending upon what operating system and media center software you use, you can record the MPEG-2 data directly to you hard disk then if you desire, edit or copy as you wish.
That said, it is clearly a computer geek oriented product, not a plug-and-play 'any body can make it go' product.
For those folks who are able to make Windows-7 Home Premium edition OS work for them, the Silcondust tuner is one of several tuners supported by the Windows Media Center software that is already installed. That makes such a computer a complete HD receiver and DVR.
