Re: Amazon / Autumn Internationals

Thank you for replying Spiderplant. So is this the case with every other app than VM offers, apart from the three which are available to me - iPlayer, Netflix and the STV Player?

Well, the TiVo is basically full, but surely you have apps like YouTube, Vevo and ITV Hub (possibly not if you're in Scotland?).

I don't expect any new apps to be added to TiVo.

ITV Hub isn't compatible with legacy TiVo boxes. Only V6 TiVos.

Ah yes. There is an ITV Hub app on TiVos, but it just loads a holding page.

Yes i have YouTube and Vevo but ITVHub is not available.

And I also don't expect to see any more apps added.

I'm curious to know what you mean when you say that "the Tivo is virtually full".

There is no spare memory to allow new applications to be added

Thank you for that.

I think it's really bad that Amazon Prime is not available to Tivo customers. Netflix is so why not Amazon Prime as well, given that Amazon Prime has its own EPG number.

Is there a reason why you don’t upgrade? If you use old gadgets they will lose their ability to carry on showing you what you receive now, as well as not being able to show the new apps.

The V6 performs much better but is almost identical to the TiVo from the user’s perspective, and the 360 Horizon box is the most up to date, but with a completely different UI.

I am a TV only customer who is happily contracted to another provider for telephone and internet.

I see. What will you do about your services when they ultimately stop providing TV via the TiVo? It's getting quite old now.

Re: Amazon / Autumn Internationals

Probably go to another provider but that's a decision I would have to make at the time but VM will still have a decent number of TV only customers so I don't see this happening just yet.

I've just started a discussion about this so that this particular topic can get back to what ti is supposed to be talking about :)
