to the forum by the way
Thanks for the reply and welcome

This is the problem for my personal case, i'm stuck at the moment with a SA V+ box which i absolutely hate due to it being extremely slow and intermittently buggy when accessing the on demand content.

Sadly i paid just short of £200 for this glorified door stop, and despite 2 engineers visits nothing has been found to be wrong with the box itself so apparently i'm stuck with it.

I asked to switch to a Samsung box as the engineer said they ran a little faster then my current one but was quoted another £150 to do so because they couldn't find fault with the current one.

So right now i'm not prepared to pay out another £190 + £3 per month for a TiVo service when i've recently paid a similar amount not to mention a monthly bill of around £120

I know i can get a sky+ box for free and the services will be about the same amount per month, but i've also hear that while the sky+ box is better than my current SA V+ the TiVo will be so much better than the sky+

So at the moment while you say think of anything under £190 to be a bonus, for me it could be that bonus that keeps me with VM.

I know typing here won't actually provide me with any answers by the way, its just nice to be able to vent some frustration once in a while
