That's strange, and massively disappointing. Does that come down to broadcast rights for movies and TiVo / Virgin Media not being allowed to automatically record them i.e. making a back-up or duplicate of the movie? If that is the case, why isn't that explained by Virgin on their website or the info booklet you get when TiVo is installed?
I'm of the opinion if something hasn't been explained fully to you at the point of sale, you've been mis-sold the product. If TiVo doesn't record movies people taking TiVo should be informed of this up front. If Virgin know TiVo doesn't record movies, and they choose not to make customers aware, to me that's a lie and Virgin aren't being completely open or honest. This might seem a little hard on Virgin but now I don't have SKY Movies, I'd love TiVo to auto record me films.... in fact I expect TiVo to auto record films for me. Surely that isn't too much to expect?
