Re: TiVo
I have a question for DF please!
I do not subscribe to the Sky Movies or Sky Sports on VM. I just have the regular XL TV. When the Tivo makes suggestions as to what you might like to view do they exclude Sky Movies if you do not subscribe.
The reason I ask is because, when I had Sky, the Sky Anytime was always recording items for channels I had not subscribed to and because I was not a subscriber I could not view them. It was a total waste of HDD space.

Re: TiVo
No TiVo will not record suggestions from channels you don't subscribe to.

Re: TiVo
Had a demo in Manchester today of Tivo in the Virginmedia store in the Arndale shopping centre and I must say I was very impressed. The ability to find a film to watch with a specific actor is right up my street and the menus look great compared to the old V+ boxes. The extra recording space is still the biggest selling point. God I wish I had the money for the box and the install though.
