lets be a little more specific for an example, the common tv tuner card. it allows you to watch tv on your computer, and when combined with various software packages (like mythTV) you can use it just like a DVR set-top box, only its web accessible, can play games, etc. another common use is to make AMV's- to record video from a game or vhs movie
