Sounds perfectly reasonable to me  |
Change “assuming” to “dependant” then if that makes you feel better.
Sounds perfectly unreasonable to me. Content based only programming needs accurate data and Tivo is still to getting that from its content service provider.
If you want to regard something a reasonable which does not work properly then that is up to you, strange!

At least with TiVo you have a much better chance at getting your shows recorded, it ain't perfect but IMO way better then what we had before.

Accepted zantarous, forget the shortfalls of V+ since was an early adopter of Tivo. Time change issue still applies to Tivo though.

Agreed for now. Tivo doesn't have anything yet, we are still waiting for it. Sky have been smart here getting "off-line" viewing going for people who want to watch "on the go" or in my example, find something to do for a 2 hour train journey which is what I would welcome. Tivo is promising more when it arrives i.e. streaming between multiple TIVOs but we are still waiting despite the code update many months ago, which provided the enabler for this.
