Bigb63, I appreciate the opportunity for working letting me work with you on this. In regards to the Cloud-based DVR service, this is not a requirement. In other words, we do offer a Contour 2 system with a hard drive. However, one distinct advantage to our cloud-based DVR system is the ability to access 4K content through Netflix and YouTube apps. Please feel free to reach out to us directly, should you have any further issues. -Kevin M. Cox Support Forum Moderator

KevinM2...so how does one determine what hardware we have Cloud/hard? Does it show up on the bill. Is there a price difference and what are the other differences than Netflix and Utube? I don't use either option.
- KevinM26 years agoFormer ModeratorThe Contour 2 wireless receivers are different for the following reasons:
1.) No coaxial cable is required for the wireless receivers, as they communicate with the modem
2.) Cloud-based DVR service. Meaning, if you have to swap out receivers for any reason, all content is stored on a virtual cloud, as opposed to a hard-drive (with the hard-drive, all content would be lost)
3.) The ability to stream in 4K for Youtube and Netflix
If you'd like, we can take the opportunity to go over your account services in greater detail. To get started, please include a link to this forum thread and email us at cox.help@cox.com. -Kevin M. Cox Support Forum Moderator
