Yes, I agree it shouldn't happen but I wouldn't call it a "major" drawback given how irregularly it happens.
How ever often it may or may not happen its a problem ( Is it common to all PVRs, I have no idea hence the question). Now if it worked in these cases that would be good (ADD TO MY WISH LIST )

If you don't need then, don't get a Tivo and save yourself some money and just get a standard VHD box which (AFAIK) includes a full 'red button' service.
I only "got" a TiVo as Virgin were GIVING them away , and offering a bribe every month to take one
Personally I feel that any one paying good money of one ,felt they have to defend a poor decision. yet again I say Emperors new clothes. This comes from the ex owner of a Laser Disc player !!!
