If you look at page 10 you can see the relative difference for HH rating and viewers from live, live+SD and live+7. On a household ratings basis the Live to Live + SD gain is .2 to .3 of a ratings point and the gain from live+SD to live+7 is ~ .3 to .4. it's pretty much the same for all of the nets other than the CW. similar information for total viewers is also there on the same page though it's in P2 ratings points (1 = ~2.9 million)there the difference between live and live+SD was about .2 and the change from live+SD also .2. So on average, for the big four, in very round numbers live+7 is about a million higher than live with ~50% of it baked into the live+SD.

We see the DVR numbers for the 40 weekly cable shows which wind up having the highest *total* viewing, but there may have been *many* shows with more live+7 viewing that just didn't make the top 40 in total viewing, so we probably were not actually reporting the most DVR'd shows for cable. also the cable data was highly misleading due to the fact we get very little data.
