There is no need for any one to start saying its only slightly worse - i can see these things, honestly i can, i calibrated my tv's colour balance and grey scale with an eye-one display probe, but it was nearly spot on by just by my own eye, i can't go backwards, i will probably be the last V+ user in town.
In every thread I've seen about this there are more people saying the pq is as good with some saying it is even better. I think most people saying there is a difference have LCD tv's anyway. I'm not going to cancel my tivo order. If the tivo pq is unacceptable I will just return it.
