I don't hate Sky, in fact I admire them in some ways. They are good at what they do. They have some underhand ways about them though.  |
I have great respect for you DF but you are totally wrong. I am absolutely no bias towards any platform, read my posts which surely prove that. I genuinely couldn't care less who provides our services so long as we get the channels we want at a price that suits my family. For now that is VM.
But I note you didn't answer my questions which is fair enough being a staff member, I respect that.
So I will sum up. If 3/4 of VM customers currently have no V+, a PVR which is way cheaper than Tivo and in addition to that I would bet a lot of non V+ customers are not higher tier subscribers either so want to avoid the additional V+ charges for non XL subscribers, or just have no need for a PVR at all so have a V or V HD box instead why on earth do VM think they are going to shell out for Tivo, sign a new contract, maybe pay an additional Tivo sub and possibly have to subscribe to a higher tier of service?
I seriously doubt they will, not all because of a top notch set top box and that is all it is, a set top box. By all accounts a very nice set top box but if they don't want, or more importantly don't need a V+ now I doubt they will want, or need, Tivo either.
