The speeds which large files can be shifted around these days and your excuse that Tivo is slow because it needs to fetch data do not add up.

It also has to search for the data and the metadata - you are talking about multiple searches across multiple files and their many indexes, imho (unless, of course, you know more about the TiVo database and index structure than I do, as I am just going on general data warehousing principles...).
