VM want to increase the ARPU, make the customer feel like they're saving money by spending a little more and they will. If you can get customers to move from L TV to XL by saying that the TiVo monthly fee is waived, great!

I paid £100 "install" and a tenner a month in 2006 when the TV Drive came out and I didn't moan about it, well maybe a little. NTL changed what they did and waived the monthly fee for XL customers, I was happy, NTL were happy I was paying them more for XL TV.

Yes, a price hasn't been set for TiVo but I know from the various people I've talked to who have the VM TiVo box that a monthly fee is quite possible. It's TiVo's business model, absolutely nothing to stop VM absorbing it for XL customers, but that's pure speculation!
