It's not unacceptable, but I recently got a new Samsung TV for the bedroom and being a 2014 Quad Core model, the difference in speed in Netflix is incredible. It feels like.
Yes, both work, but the user experience is far better on the TV and it makes it harder to go back to TiVo for my main TV downstairs.

I have a Fire TV, LG Bluray and WDTV, and all of those load Netflix faster than Tivo, so I never use Tivo for Netflix.
However, there are some people (OLD BOY for example) who want Tivo to do everything and don't want to buy extra boxes or upgrade to a smart TV just for 'smart features'. For those people, IMHO opinion, 45 seconds is fine.
I bought the WDTV box just to get Netflix at 1080p and 5.1 audio. If Tivo had had Netflix at the time, and was not just restricted to UK Netflix, I would quite happily have lived with the TiVo's 45 second load time and not bought the WDTV.
