Interesting. If that's indeed the basic spec for Virgin Media's next-gen TiVo box it seems a bit underwhelming and looks like it is simply playing catch-up to Sky's new Q offering. I am still hoping that when the new TiVo box arrives it will take the opportunity to leapfrog Sky Q and give us a whole new generation of box.

PS - I'm not holding my breath.
