Yes, specifically in the USA, TV manufacturers decided against adding built-in DVRs to please the TV licensing lobby. Sort of how VCRs were originally argued against years ago.
Europe has had...

Fire TV Recast is a DVR that lets you watch and record over-the-air TV at home or on-the-go with a Fire TV
Leads me to think otherwise, but subtract $30-40 from the price if not and still have the...

Yes. Since the streaming companies have built their empire (user base) they want to take advantage of it and are coming out with these versions of DVRs. SlingTV has its own version called Air TV....

Most charge a monthly fee for the DVR. This is a one time charge. I could see this being worth it if they included a cable card slot

Amazon site says required equipment is a fire tv per tv and an antenna and give you the option to add those to the cart. So at $230 doesnt sound like its integrated.

I thought TCL TV's roku OS allows you to pause live TV - if it indeed gives you program guide and allows you to schedule recordings, it is a big selling point for these. I will go out and buy a TCL...

How does this compare to an HD Homerun, functional wise? The subscription for that is only $35/yr, and has been WELL worth it.

They don't. On TCL's website it still pushes utilizing an OTA DVR and heavily pushes Tablo. They wouldn't be doing this if the functionality was built into the OS.
