It is for for purpose. Its just not brilliant at its job.

When TiVo first came out on VM it went through a huge test and trial phase for well over a year. Alpha then beta and then expanded trials.

With the alpha and beta there was weekly software drops and occasionally more than once a week. It was very thorough.

I know as I was part of it all when I worked for VM. Am sure this new box will have had the same done.

I've never really had an issue with my TiVo being slow or unresponsive. I am not waiting for the new box though. The price rises had made me leave and Sky Q and Sky fibre and getting installed next month.
