I also have to disagree about the performance and capabilities of the box. Peoples attitudes to UI performance have changed ENORMOUSLY in recent years as their day to day experience is set more by smartphones and tablets than earlier cable boxes and video recorders. Even modern Smart TVs are having to up their game. The current TiVo performance is a relic of a bygone era! Also, boxes like the Roamio Pro have the greater number of tuners needed to be used for the whole home.

Sorry I have to disagree. It does extactly what I want and when I want. My TiVos are not slow at all, waiting about 20-30 seconds for an app(YouTube/Netflix) to load is not a major annoyance or hindrance for us.
Also being able to use the VM site or TiVo app to mange series links and recordings is a bonus. I've used Sky's newer UI and think its so much harder to use and more of a pain than TiVo is.
