You are right though every box has it's problems especially when first released. My objection though was you highlighting problems some people have had with a box you don't own and then suggesting people couldn't possibly post about a box they don't own.  |
People are free to say what they want when they want about any STB , I merely stated that Devil hadn't used the box so couldn't know everything about it , I don't claim to know everything about TIVO , that's why I don't make bold claims about my box being better than it
Let's get this point clear , I'm currently contracted to Sky for another 10 months , I will then read the forums and assess TIVO and VM channel lineup and wouldn't rule out a switch back (hardly the actions of a loyal Sky fan
). I resent the fact you seem to think I know nothing about TIVo I've used it in VM store and have used a TIVO premiere while on a 3 week holiday to the US , granted my knowledge is nowhere near as vast as yours and many others as I haven't used the VM TIVO for any length of time in the home environment. To be perfectly honest none of the TIVO bugs particularly frighten me , it's main omission for me at the moment is BBC red button and Sky Red button being a sports fan , however in 10 months these will probably have arrived.
