I'm surprised they went to the trouble & expense of introducing the 360 as it too is to be phased out to be replaced by a non recording streaming box

From Richard’s perspective, it’s the ability to record radio shows that is missing, and I get that, but for most it just comes down to personal choices. For example, there are those who complain that the 360 doesn’t allow them to manage their series links, but why would they need to? Adding and taking off series links can be done on the 360, so I don’t see what else there is to manage! There are no ‘Suggestions’, some say, except that there are, and they are clear to see on the Home Screen as ‘Recommended for you’.
The wishlist facility on the TiVo is useful for some, which flags up items on the search that become available at some time in the future, whereas the 360 allows you to do something similar, but only for programmes that are available now or coming soon.
For most purposes and for most people the 360 serves all their needs and it is better than the Sky Q box in a number of ways, particularly ease of use. The TiVo technology is being phased out on VM now, and it is not offered elsewhere by the major players. TiVo itself has confirmed that it has stopped selling its DVR set-top boxes, so sooner or later, people are going to have to learn to cope without them unless they decide to purchase a TiVo TV.

The other main issue is losing QuickView.

The Sun (who have been known to publish rubbish in the past) say that Narrative told them 31/12/25. Guess we'll soon find out.
