I hope it delivers and that it's a success but it's not for me as i'll never be a Triple XL customer. £189 to loan a PVR and an ongoing sub is out of the question but I'm actually quite happy with V+ for now.
If you cant see any advantage to tivo and dont want a better box then the pricing is pretty irrelevant. To many people the box being on loan is irrelevent also. With VM's main competitor just getting a better box without tivo was initially twice that amount if VM allow a self install. The only advantage that box has is a larger hard drive which is pretty useless if you dont stay subscribed to their service. I think if people do want a better box with the tivo software they will be willing to pay that amount. Anyway it gives them another choice they can either stick with what they have got like you or pay for better.
