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.
Yep I never use the red button mainly because it's so slow. Truth be known there could be no red button on my current box and I would be none the wiser.

If the red button services were quicker (maybe it will be on TiVo) then I might end up using it.
