Hi Burner.
I can reccomend the WinTV-PVR-USB2 (has hardware encoding)

Though I had a few issues with the drivers, couldn't use the quality settings within Media Portal (would record at some insane bitrates, higher than my system could handle).
But thats fixed now, and it works like a charm
If you are looking for an USB tuner because you are planning on moving it around, using it on a labtop or something, it might be a little bulky.
