For me, apart from the larger hard drive, there is no longer as much of a desire to have a Tivo at present. There are too many reasons, such as no third tuner (Coming soon), problems with padding, un-initiated reboots, no red button and most importantly, poor sd picture quality. These are all features that we already have on the V+. I am very happy with both of my V+ boxes. They give me no trouble whatsoever. Why would I want to fork out more dosh to be an early adopter of an as yet unproven technology?
I agree with all these points and can't believe the 'revolutionary' Tivo doesn't update it's EPG data in real time!

At this point it seems like Virgin are charging £3 a month for a bigger HDD.
