But I fail to see how you can be sure of that until the new US Tivo is revealed. That's when I will make a judgement.
And of course, it's not certain that VM will actually release a new box this year, and if they do, which Tivo software will they base it on?

Sorry mate I've just spat my coffee out laughing , loyalty I'm not sure Sky retentions would agree. There's only one reason I'm still with Sky and its discount although to be fair I've generally had a good customer experience in my time with them. I personally don't want any one supplier to have a upper hand healthy competition benefits all my comparison was merely you stating a 6 tuner TiVo on the horizon.
I do see a future where the one master box records and other rooms have small wireless slave boxes with no HDD its been like this for a while in the States.
I'll openly admit it I think SkyQ is a bold move and one that will have plenty of future innovation it will however no doubt cost the earth like most things Sky venture into.
