Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2
They have mumbled a few times about rolling out general tivo software to everyone* and we know the Liberate contract is expiring pretty soon (Liberate is the molasses-like software running on non-Tivo boxes currently).

One of the existing boxes running the Liberarte platform can handle the Tivo software, so that is one way for them to migrate people to that software platform without having to give out the premium kit.

*Virgins definition of everyone tends to be nearly most people sometimes perhaps maybe half and a quarter.
