Tivo is not a recognisable brand in the UK, not yet anyway. I hope in 5 years everyone knows what it is purely as I want to see competition even if I am no longer a VM customer.
And as it only has 2 million customers worldwide after around 10 years it probably isn't that well known at all.
You would probably agree that the term 'Sky+' is part of common language these days, even if the PVR people have isn't actually a Sky box, i.e. 'i'll Sky+ it', I have even said it myself as I know that people will know what I mean.
If I said 'V+ it' they probably wouldn't know what I meant unless they were with VM.
