As a Tivo owner what I would really like is for NTL to do a deal with the Tivo people to get a dual tuner PVR with tivo. By using the network to update the listings (as my tivo can do via tivonet and my NTL broadband connection) you remove the cost of providing dial up lines for the data. Obviously the economics would have to work out right but now people have accepted sky+ the way they never did with tivo (unless the actually tried it) I think there is a market for it (well me anyway).
