I wonder if they'll offer any sweeteners once all existing customers are installed to try and tempt switchers.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 2

Am I the only who is bored rigid of muppetman11? I read this thread for TIVO news and having to wade through the constant comparisons to SKY etc. by him is getting tiresome. Whilst I agree with the 'perjorative' comment I can't help but think that the thread is being overtaken by one individuals viewpoint over and above many others? CF.Mega poster or not he is almost always off-topic and, in my view 'trolling'. Muppetman11, please can you leave this thread to those who are interested and post in the SKY forum where you belong please. Sense of humour failure OFF.
