I haven't got TiVo, but from what I have read and heard you do seem to have a valid point that you do get a lot more than the V+. However, although this is clearly their flagship STB, the initial outlay of £149 should be all that is required from the customer. I believe it would be a much more viable 'weapon' against Sky if it didn't carry this extra monthly charge.

As muppetman mentions when he made that post more than 56% believe they pay enough already and that is in a forum of tech fanatics. I would be surprised if much of the general joe public would be willing to fork out the monthly fee as well as the initial outlay.
