It is relevant in that I see no reason wht Tivo couldn't be modified so that when it's trying to resolve recording clashes, it could also look at the +1 channels. If it did that, it couldn't hurt and I'm sure would help in some instances.

Whishlist are brilliant for what they do, but for ongoing shows, a series link is better in my view and including +1 channels in conflict searches can only help.

I don't know much anout the US TV broadcasters, but do they have +1 channels? If not, that's maybe why a pretty obvious inclusion of them was ommited from Tivo?
