Got my TIVO yesterday - I would say that the picture quality is much the same as the V+ box. Having said that, SD picture quality varies hugely with channel - for example BB2 SD looks fine but C4 is awful - watching Friends - maybe due to the NTSC port?

I noticed watching BB1 HD football this afternoon that the match feed looked really good but the background build up interviews etc - which presumably were not filmed in HD looked fuzzy to say the least

This is going to be the same debate that was had when CDs first came out - the end result is only as good as the source material, but has the potential to be top notch.

I have seen sky movies HD films on my V+ that looked as good as the bluray versions on my Samsung TV - I need to watch a few on TIVO to compare...
