I think they may be pulling a "marketing fast one" here. By not sating all the facts, they would like you to believe that you can store 500 hours of HD or 3D content on a 1TB HDD - clearly there is some amazing magic in the VM version of the Tivo system to achieve this.
Tivo's own information states 150 hours of HD or 1350 SD on a 1TB disc.
Where lies the truth I wonder?
Can I be first to say "Can I put a larger HDD in my VM Tivo box"?

1 terabyte will certainly be enough storage for me and most other people forever now (especially if Virgin switch from MPEG2 to MPEG4 which means they'll take up less space on the disk) for the current HD standard, unless somehow my viewing habits dramatically change or we switch to SuperHiVisionDef3DXtraMax, which by then we'll have another new box (hopefully).
