That would be because the V+ only ever recorded exactly what you told it to and didn't have the intelligence that Tivo does. An intelligence which, I admit, is only as good as the meta-data it uses. That said, would you rather it record an episode and it be a repeat or not record it and miss a new episode?

Oh I agree completely. But then I don't think the problem will ever be completely eliminated. I accept that no technology is perfect and some user-interaction will always be required.

No thanks or, unless it gets updated before broadcast, my Tivo would not record "A Town Called Eureka" next Wednesday as it currently only has generic data and yet I
know it is a new episode.
