My TiVo just didn't impress people I showed it to - you had to get into the mindset of not watching live tv any more. People just couldn't grasp why you would want to do that.

I wouldn't say Sky+ was basic - it just gave you the main portion of the PVR experience, and left out the complicated stuff to appeal to the lowest common denominator. Was there not a time Sky+ could not record on both tuners and watch a recording because Sky thought it was too much for people to grasp? :-)
