TiVO v1 in the UK was:

*Expensive
*Badly marketed
*Screwed over by Sky

Everyone I demonstrated one to thought it was fantastic. If once they'd found out that Sky were trying to do them over they'd released a twin tuner DVB-T version it would have been a different story. TiVO could have bern more popular in the UK than it is in the states.

To be honest, if they released a Freeview or Freesat TiVO I'd pay £400 for it in a heartbeat.
