Agreed, there's a couple of programmes on CBS Action which I'd love to watch, but I can't despite owning a next-gen PVR.
Not sure what to make of
The TiVoed 50,000 (so much for my speculated figure of 97,000 a few pages ago
). I'm sure now the price has gone down, VM will continue to get new customers for it, and fair play to them and their advertising campaign, there's even a big VM/TiVo poster just down the road from me.
But more content, more apps, and less misplaced series links at weekends (
) would be a big plus.
As for HD:

We currently have around 3.8m TV customers, of which 1.7m or 45% are able to experience HD after having a further 131,000 customers take an HD set-top box in the quarter.

Even my Dad has got a HDTV after moving back to VM from Sky, Sky Living HD looked great on his Sammy 46".

Most of which (if not all) goes to TiVo.

We might have Sky Atlantic by then.
