Well first of all how pathetic is Sky not allowing there content to show on a quarter screen, its like when we lost sky one and others and virgin called it sky snooze channel remember. Well Sky is being pathetic as they feel under threat with Tivo and they should

s there still going to be a delay on the TiVo sky sports red button. Also on TiVo if there Is any other way for recording apart from one at a time live rather than the v plus background copy

Yes, the application needs to be rewritten for TiVo. Obviously there are far more non-TiVo boxes, so they are doing that one first.

There's no background copy, but you can play back a whole series without having to start each episode separately.

Hey my new Onkyo AV Receiver has a preset display option so that when I switch to the input (HDMI) from the new Tivo coming my way it will display "TIVO" on the front panel. HOW COOL IS THAT :D A TIVO ready surround system.

As if Sky would allow VM to do that. They don't even let VM show Sky content in TiVo's mini-window within the EPG.

I hope TWC win, they've paid for the content already, as so has the customer, what he/she does with it after receiving the content is their business (excluding creating pirate copies of course).

That would do my head in with no mini-window , all channels have mini-window on my Sky+HD box ;)

Yeah but all content-providers aren't as petty as Sky. ;)

I wouldn't blame VM for not putting any links to Sky content in TiVo's Discovery Bar, just in retaliation. Actually, I wonder if the channel providers paid VM for being put on there.

I am sure I read a article recently that hinted the discovery bar would become a money maker so I guess there will be some money involved.
