It's a YMMV issue... mine is working fine.
I think Express Series Link is a great idea, all we need is ability to change defaults via TiVo UI. I almost always want "new & reruns, all episodes, keep until delete, no padding" so being able to choose that would make the TiVo much less fiddly. It's a shame TiVo isn't more like XBMC, where if something can't be altered by GUI you can edit the skin XML files and add the option(s) you need.

Red Button - all the information sevices, news, etc plus red button also used for multiple matches at the same time e.g. Wimbledon/Football - that one really annoys people who like red button to change over to other matches
YMMV Issue - was referring to Tivo generally not just iplayer, it is definitely NOT the finished product by a long stretch. Just go over the VM Support forum and catch the thread on those returning Tivo's
Express Links - agree a good idea but badly implemented for several reasons one of which you mentioned namely user configurable; back to back padding implications also has to be addressed, it is worse than what the Sky box does on this, see

Overall I do like Tivo though so don't get me wrong here when I do criticize it. Just don't want VM to take their focus away from progressively improving it. 15.2 update can only be the start and it is not just about new features but improving what is there already.
