Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
Swapped the boxes ( TiVo back in the main spot) around today as new TV was put in seemed the right time, Also rugby has just about finished ,so my main use of the red button is over until the autumn. However as the boss pointed out she will want it for Wimbledon
Looking at it closely still not over the moon- Its good but not that good !

I thought about suing the writers, but you can`t copyright a life choice.
My favorite Tee shirt ( well one of two really the other my wife wont let me even wear !!! no it is not dirty in any way)
Has a picture of a one of seven dwarfs on it saying " Genius by birth- grumpy by choice". Guess that sums it up

Was comical phoned up today how much it would cost to change my one TiVo box from 500gb to 1tb, was quoted £49 installation and £15 a month more on my bill!!

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
Seems very reasonable to me. After all, the "installation" would take at least seconds. I can see why you're laughing, I know I would be

Why £15 extra a month to have a 1tb TiVo instead of a 500gb one? That's what I found funny.

Re: General TiVo Discussion Part 3
Either of the charges are outrageous alone. Combined, well what can you say? I mean you have to laugh or else you'd cry. How much extra does a 1tb Tivo cost VM over and above the 500gb? Next to nothing I'd wager. Utterly unjustifiable. Shame you only rent them and that the HDDs are tied to the specific unit. Before my Sky HD box died I toyed with swapping the 320gb HDD for a 1.5tb.

Have a think about...
- Cost of new box
- Cost of man & van to deliver it to your house and install it
- Cost of administration on back-end systems
- Cost of refurbishing your old box
Even the person who handled your phone call today needs paying.

Ok I'll stop mentioning the £49 installation fee I haven't a problem with that. It's the £15 a month more that's got me baffled just to have a bigger HDD.
