Virginmedias Tivo although bassed on 15 year old ideas is a good piece of kit and offers things the current Sky+HD box doesn't.

Do sky need to react to Tivo? As a sky customer in a VM area I CHOOSE sky because to me content is king and an advanced epg doesnt float my boat.

But will the average Sky customer be tempted by Tivo? Ok its currently clunky and needs upto a minute to carry out commands but overtime VM will sort that.

In my opinion the fact suggestions constantly fill your HDD making Tivo slow down to crawl is very annoying but if I turn off suggestions then why would I pay the £3 Tivo tax?
