What happens if the channel is running early or late though. Without keeping the padding you'd either end up losing the last minute or so of the first programme and having to watch the start of the second to see how the first ends, or having the start of the second programme missing and having to FF to the end of the first programme to watch the start. If there were some kind of PDC-like functionality where a channel could tell the TiVo that a programme has started or ended then I'd agree with you that they could both use the same tuner and intelligently switch from the first recording to the second, but it seems that's not an option right now.
