Re: What's good about TIVO I want to know?
The big advantages of VM's TiVo over the V+ box for me is recording capacity, and that it can record three things at once. It is now very rare that I see a clash between recordings, even if you have overrun set for when programmes start early or end late, yet on the V+ it was always getting upset.
The EPG generally works, but at times the box does hang momentarily if you go into things like "my shows" when the box has been unused for a little while, it's almost as if it is coming out of some hidden standby mode. My V+ often failed to record, but no such issues with the TiVo that I've now had few months. I do find that if you press the remote's info button for the current programme, a lot of the text description for the programme is cut off and there seems to be no way to dispay that (that I've found). Overall these are minor issues and the STB is definitely the way to watch TV.
