What's far more important to me is a PDC*-type function for V+ recordings so that if there are late changes or programmes overrun then the V+ box will record all of the programme at the times the programme actually broadcast rather than the times originally stated on the EPG.
For those not in the know, PDC stands for Programme Delivery Control which was a function in the days of analogue broadcasting whereby a signal was sent to video recorders meaning that a PDC-enabled VCR recorded between the times that a programme was actually broadcast rather than the times advertised in listings magazines.

AS far as I am aware TiVo does not have or is likely to have a dynamic EPG, I think this a great shame as freeview PVR's have been offering this for a number of years.
