What does TIVO actually bring to the table that is an advantage other than trying to record stuff you might like?

You don't loose archiving ability.
3 recordable tuners
Series links that you don't have to renew when a show takes a season break or at the begining of each season.
Tivo automatically looks for repeats in the event of a series link recording clash (limited to the same channel unfortunately, but still better than V+)
Whishlists; saves you the time you could spend trying to find out when a future show you want to watch is due to air and on which channel. Tivo whishlits automatically record it for you, no matter how far it is in the future, as well as recording anything by your favourite actress/actor/director/subject/genre.
Series, Season and episode information.
Upcoming episodes of a specific show within the 14 day EPG window.
Backwards EPG for 7 days with direct access to anything on the catchup services.
Intelligent show search with options to set a series link, wishlist, view from On Demand (if available) or view a clip on Youtube.
