i deal with elderly people in my full time job and this is the classic push back to nearly everything.

for those people here who are scared about the more powerful 360 and all the additional features i'd like to make myself available to help any of you with the new software if you take the plunge whether that be by email or whatsapp etc.

i feel like we as a forum can really help those scared of jumping onto a much superior tv box etc
Yes, I agree with that, Vince. The 360, however, is much easier to navigate than the V6, so most elderly people should find the 360 a big improvement.

It seems to me from what I have picked up is that devotees of the TiVo software tend to be those who like fiddling around with the various features, which is fine, but the features on the TiVo that are not on the 360 are really gimmicks and cannot be used on the 360 software without a licence.

For many people, cutting costs is important as long as it doesn’t affect their viewing. So when the TiVo licence comes to an end, less cost to VM and more opportunity for VM to spend on their offerings content wise or to keep prices down if that’s what they decide to do.
