And Tivo customers, as it stands, won't be able to record events whilst they are at work.

How can that be anything other than really bad public relations?

They got it right when they announced that. But that was then; this is now. The game has now been changed by Sky and VM need to keep up. They can't live on past stratergies when the game has taken on a new direction.
TBH this seems like frustration of other areas of VM and not specifically the Olympics?

Because it took Sky 3 months after VM's announcement to make theirs. Until this point
the coverage on VM was superior.
