Well, Tivo is fully baked for me. I have no use for the things that are missing (which are being implemented) and the large numger of features that are on tivo that are missing from V+, I have masses of use for.

And, I only pay £3 in total for both Tivos (pays to be an early adopter some times!)

Yes but you are forgetting one thing my dear chap and that BBC are wholly responsible for putting out the BBC sports app and that includes what content is available on there at present.


Didnt know I had ! its a cut & past from my bookmarks !

For the life of me I can not think were I saw it .Maybe on Virgin forums a reply from BBC blaming Virgin. Something along the lines it all on the Web to get, not there fault if Tivo cant :confused:
And anyway its not me complaining this time. I`ve given up on decent red button services on TiVo & put freeview & Tivo into one set switch as required:shocked:

What's the staff incentive scheme like at Virgin? Ken strikes me as the sort of person that would have stayed had they made just a crumb of effort, even if it was just taking the time to explain things properly. I fear that Sky's channel line up means it will always be difficult to tempt customer's back once they've made the jump, but that's probably not true in reverse meaning customer service is all important, particularly for those able to get decent adsl broadband speeds. Shame.

means that he had a huge row with Virgin. He knows what is coming up from them and it's not a great deal. he knows this because he worked for them. I think.

Personally i got a good deal to swap to TiVo free install and activation,keep my V+ box for free multiroom and a £7 a month discount applied for two years,which more then covers any TiVo fee so i am quite happy at the moment,particularly now red button is being implimented on sky sports.:)

We will have Euros starting on Friday (which I guess not have much red button use) but then the biggy is Wimbledon.
If like last year we still don't have the red button features for Wimbledon I think you will see a hell of a lot of people complaining unlike last year when it was just the early adopters
