I wish I could afford TIVO but at £149 for activation is way beyond my current budget. I already pay Virginmedia in excess of £110 a month for TV XL V+ HD, Phone XL and Broadband XXL - even that seems expensive compared to some people I have read about on here.

I have been looking at Sky, even though I have been with cable for years - from what I seen on their website it worked out cheaper than Virginmedia, which surprised me plus I would get more HD channels and the box is free (to keep).

TIVO looked promising but they want to add a further £3 a month on top of what I am paying now, and a £149 activation fee!! Unless, Virginmedia start showing me a reason why I should be paying such a huge amount per month they will be losing me as a customer. Lately, we been suffering from too many network issues for my liking...
