This, in itself, will reduce the amount of clashes over the two tuner V+. In addition, TiVo does a good job at resolving any residual clashes.

OD for BBC is delivered on TiVo by an iPlayer app directly from the BBC servers and hence this would avoid any missing BBC catchup.

Changing to TiVo might even save you money by moving to one of the Collections.
I don't mean to sound rude, but...

I am *choosing* to not record certain programs, because Virgin advertise and supply a VOD service that works brilliantly 95% of the time. It is VM-process and support failings that are causing a problem the remaining 5%, not anything to with shortcomings in the VOD service itself.

Those shortcomings also affect anyone with a standard V-box, and to be honest, the V+ box does everything I want.

Maybe the TiVo would be an answer, maybe it wouldn't. Virgin properly supporting and resolving ongoing and *recurrent* faults with one of their advertised services, would be another.

The next logical argument is that people with standard V boxes should also look at TiVo if they have complaints with VOD.
