The new reminder system isn't as good as the V+ one, but it is good enough for me.

I deliberately haven't mentioned names as it is neither productive or fair, rather I'm aiming at the group of people who have consistently, on here and other places, labelled those who don't want to use TiVo in the way that they think it should be used as virtual Luddites.
That's how you've taken it, I'm not convinced it's how it was meant. Like I say, I've seen what I consider to be well reasoned arguments ignored by people who, in my perception, weren't prepared to countenance change. Allegations of pomposity could well be levelled at some on either side of the debate, but it doesn't mean the debate wasn't there to be had. My opinion is that whilst you've done well to avoid naming those whom you consider to have been pompous you'd have done better had you said nothing at all.

@den - does OTT mean netflix and the like? If so wholeheartedly agree.
