Recommended TV tuner for linux

I'm planning on buying one TV tuner...any ideas/advices? I'd rather buy a USB one (I shouldn't have bought a MicroATX case

), but I don't rule out a PCI one.
Greetings.

HDhomerun is great for HD, 2 tuners, network based, expensive but well wort hit.
It's also multi platform , i have test it with vista and 7, with a mac using eyetv and linux using myth, just fantastic.

for SD tv, the PVR-500 has 2 years working flawlessly, I cant recommend it more.

Have fun
