I am normally one to defend Virgin Media. I still have V+HD boxes and think I will stick with it purely because we can't afford £10 extra a month. I understand Virgin Media are trying to recover the cost of the tivo boxes but think that the extra charge is a disincentive for many people. I think the only way Virgin could get away with this for new tivo owners would be if they let people have them with no installation or setup charges, people who have payed out already for their tivos should have the current price honoured.
