Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
the Sky Sports red button could also be delayed because of Tivo. That is a whole new interface and I would assume they would need to code the red button for Tivo and also the current V+.

I wonder if VM would consider making this a Tivo only service to try to get more people to upgrade to that box

There probably be a point in the next couple of years where the TiVo box will become the standard V+ & VHD stb. It is a premium product at the moment but I am sure VM would like us all on TiVo sooner rather than later!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin TV (2011) Vol. I.
If they're wanting us all to move to TiVo, can they force a box to be replaced? I couldn't live without Component Out. Unless they're paying for a HDFury as well and they can gladly swap it.
