Or is it as someone has said..VM Are making you buy the box? Because realistically how much does anyone think a VM Tivo box would retail for? I bet cost to VM is slightly less than £149 if they're buying 1 or 2 million (there will be a promise to purchase contract with cicso). Cisco wouldnt be making them unless the numbers are big.
You pay the fee to keep the monthly cost down. VM isn't a registered charity.

It was the same with TVDrive / V+. That's why your monthly fees are just your subscription on XL.

Pay for it and get the box or don't, nobody is forcing anyone to get this!
