As Ive said a few times ... TiVo is only ever going to be as good as the content available on it ... yes it has a fancy GUI and maybe more responsive and quicker but at the end of the day it doesnt provide anything new in the way of content (apart from youtube online stuff etc) than the current V+ boxes.

TiVo needs content just like the V+ the only advantage is that TiVo may at some unknown future date have some form of extra subscription content like Lovefilm or Blockbusters but until the extras arrive the VMTV network as a whole needs to keep refreshing its content both from Sky and other providers.

I will wholheartldy agree that this needs to be done sensibly and at sensible costs but it does need to be done and quicker than what they are doing currently.
