Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016)
MB HQ has seen new DNP info on the New Tivo box. Here is what we can post online: Virgin are set to launch two new TiVo boxes later this year. We have also seen info on how much they will cost to get one of them and how much it will cost extra per month.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016)
It would make me laugh, if VM made a 'connection charge' yet its the same cable

I'm guessing there will be one charge for the main box and another for the equivalent of Tivo Mini.I'm sure the prices you've been told are only provisional and could alter nearer launch date depending on the competition. https://www.tivo.com/shop/mini

Interesting. Which box do you have - the Now TV box or the Roku 4? Will the new Now TV box have a recording facility via USB or external hard drive? Do you perhaps work for Sky/Now TV then?

There is a trial going on of the new box. I imagine trialists are under a NDA though.

He shouldn't but he hasn't said anything we didn't already know and has been mentioned in other online articles.
Saying that, if they find out who he is it's the last trial he'll ever get

We're just guessing that maybe you signed an NDA?
From what i've seen around the box looks very interesting, now if i could install TV Player Plus on it it'd be good .
