I'd say in part it will. eg BT and Youview being a prime example. Terrible GUI and rubbish hardware. BT just use it they didn't degign it or add anything to it.
But with VM they set the specs of the hardware and put it out to tender a contract and also have a contract with TiVo and are both actively involved in making changes and requesting changes/fixes/updates.
