I beileve S1 owners have recieved a message from TiVo?
Yes message was downloaded to the box stating service will end June 1st.
Loads of people have contacted Tivo saying please change your mind or tell us how we can receive EPG data some other way etc.

All they have replied with is move to Virgin and you will be happy again. Lots of people not in cabelled areas or not wanting XL TV etc.
They have upset quite a lot of very loyal long standing customers it seems.

There was the option to purchase a lifetime sub for £200 rather than the £10 a month also. I have the lifetime sub but basically in the T&C's it can be ended within 30 days of notice from Tivo.

I've had it for 9 years so had my money's worth but does seem a shame to end their service just because they are now tied in with Virgin.
