I think it's the principle. You are paying a monthly subscription to Virgin for the TiVo box. You are not expecting in return to have adverts forced onto you.

If Virgin plan to use TiVo to generate revenue from advertisers, they should drop the monthly fee for the box that customers are paying. Just my opinion.

Do Virgin make it clear to new sign up's to TiVo that adverts will be pushed to them? I honestly don't know the answer but would be curious to find out.
