Obviously, if my suggestion of taking away the apps, therefore negating the need for the supporting software for them that is slowing TiVo down, won't speed up the TiVo or there is an alternative way to speed up the box, then it would be a waste of time removing the apps.
Yes, I have a Roku streaming stick and I am very pleased with it. However, it shouldn't be necessary given that the Tivo can support apps. I am sure that most people would rather have all their TV apps on one device rather than have to fork out for a myriad of boxes, streaming sticks, etc.
