The Tivo was really good when it came out originally. But now it is slow and clunky, and the On Demand service is no longer what it once was.

We do have Netflix and Curzon Cinema (and soon, Vevo) streaming services on there, and of course we have Virgin Movies and Sky on demand. But it isn't enough. Many of us want more and not at the expense of how long it takes to get the box to respond.

It may be that the new box has it all and surprises us, but my suspicion is that Sky are pulling ahead now.
