A mpeg file can be copied over 100 times faster than it takes to play it.
The disk's speed therefore seems to be so much faster than needed for video,
why is it even necessary to speed it up by reducing the error-correction?


Because PVRs don't just play; they simultaneously record, from two
sources on twin-tuner models, and have features such as live pause and
action replay. So the disk may be having to deal with simultaneous
multiple streams of data.
