Justly opinion, I'm sure others will disagree but I think the TiVo will do me fine
I fully agree with you on that one, but some people like reminder functionality.

But there's a principle going on here. There are some things V+ did better than Tivo and we're being told by Stephen we should ignore them and not complain about the lack of them; how dare we challenge, 'The mighty Tivo'?

But as Tivo was modified from the US version, there was the opportunity to add some V+ functionality. For some the missing/better functionality is reminders. for me it's padding.
