Those with multiroom (two Tivo's) on VM already have more recordable tuners than Sky Q.

It will be good to find out the pricing but if they try £199 like before when sky £99 ( based on package ) it would put me off

It must be hard when you know things and you can't say, I know the feeling

The price won't be set until just before it launches, because it'll depend on market conditions at the time.

One suspects they still have a firm idea of what the price is likely to be though.

No disrespect to peoples' sources and all snippets and hints are warmly appreciated, but I wouldn't make a future spending decision until the information is confirmed by VM. They've already said the new box will be out at least six months away ie Winter 2016/17. It will have 4K capability with Tivo software on it. Nothing will be launched before this box except enhanced software on the current Tivo-powered boxes.

They've probably got a set of fully-priced options depending; as Spiderplant suggests; on market conditions.

Virgin media know the pricing, I'd say they need to look at the prices of sky and think about what they want to do. But over pricing won't help them

Well if you remember the original TiVo launched at a price of £199 the box was free but it cost £199 to install then dropped to £149

We shall see what the pricing will be but one suspects it won't be overpriced.
