I don't see how it would be superior. There are positives and negatives to both. The big negative about DVR is that it isn't free. DVRs usually come with a monthly cost. Will that factor into XBL Gold subs? Who knows. The positive on having DVR functions is that it would be able to record more than just games like your cable TV shows which would be a huge plus.
The PS4 feature allows for 15-minute recording sessions doesn't it? That's enough for a whole COD match. The feature is supposed to be instant sharing so I'd say 15-minutes strike the right balance. Who wants to wait for hours of video to upload? You want to quickly upload your video and then continue playing. Do you ever see Youtube videos longer than that? Most are under 10.
