It's all down to personal requirements. For me, the red button stuff is of no interest. Tivo has many more features to outweight the lack of the red button facility - IMO.

Others will need the red button facility and therefore Tivo won't be for them just yet. All down to what you want really. I am super happy with Tivo. Last night we were watching Ross Kemp's Extreme World which we had recorded earlier in the week from Sky 1 HD. 10 o clock came and all three recording lights came on to record a further three HD channels whilst us watching our HD recording. For me, that is more important, to have that facility to effectively record one extra channel than the V+ could.
