From
San Francisco Chronicle:-

From the article
Quote:
This time, Comcast will let subscribers replace their rented cable-DVR box with a TiVo Premiere DVR, which starts at $99 for a box that has up to 45 hours of HD video storage and $299 for a model with 150 hours of space. Tullo noted that TiVo's monthly service fee is "roughly equivalent" to Comcast's $15.95 to $19.95 per month rental of an HD DVR.

$299 / 1.61 (exchange rate today) = £185.72.
