That's what I was thinking too however this shouldn't be a problem according to the Go Discover manual you get with your TiVo box.

"If there's space on your box, it'll automatically record your Suggestions for you. But don't worry, Suggestions won't replace the shows you've chosen to record. And they're always the first to be deleted to make room for specific recordings you've set up."

On the same page of the Go Discover Manual there's another statement which for me personally doesn't ring true.

"Your box learns what you like the most and makes Suggestions for you, But not just any old stuff - it suggest's programmes and movies based on your recordings and thumb ratings."

8 months in and I've still to have a movie suggested to me. If Virgin could implement the option to have suggestions recorded in HD, and for movies to be actually suggested, then I'd be a very happy TiVo user indeed.
