Using DVB-T in the UK most SD programs are between 2.5 -&gt; 4.5 mbit a second. I 
use a sheevaplug with 3 DVB-T USB dongles which can record up to 6 programs 
from 3 separate muxes at a time. This backend device runs MythTV with the UPNP 
module. It writes to an external disk using e-sata.

Next to the TV I have a Dune HD101 connected to powerline adapter. This sees 
the MythTV  box as a DLNA server. Various laptops in the house can run MythTV 
frontend to also view programs/setup recordings.

The same setup could possibly be duplicated with two Raspberry PIs.
