I can only speak for myself, but it's not the affinity to a set top box that I'm interested, it's my affinity to the features it provides. If Sky, BT or youview made a box with the same features as Tivo, especially 3 recordable tuners and whishlists I'd be equally enthusiastic about those.

Peoples' requirements depend on their TV viewing, but I can never imagine myself going back to a box without whishlists and series links that have to be re-set for new seasons, (or even part seasons). But that is partly down to my viewing habits. Thankfully the days of me spending time checking the Digital Spy Premier list and other online 'New show UK air date listings' are over thanks to Tivo's whishlist. It's not just a nice feature, it's a time saver for me.
