  1. Comment - TiVo Raises Rates, Pushes 'Free' DVR

    Go Tivo Go!
    As a customer of ComCast Tivo and Dish Network over the past 15 years or more actually, I am glad to see that Tivo continues to be their own worst enemy.
    As if it isn't bad enough to pay twice (cable and Tivo fees) and have two remotes, two boxes and an incredibly weak menu system (compared to Dish) NOW they want to charge more?! GOOD JOB GUYS!

    Tivo, the AOL of Vidiot entertainment"
    My PocketDish just finished downloading my PVRd shows from last night so I'm off to the beach.
    Switch before they go under completely. Once they file chapter 11 they get to keep your money...even those 3yr contracts.

    FUTUREFACT - Within a couple of years you will see that torrents are the way to get your media. We already use them to capture entire series of shows that we just started watching. Also, when we miss an episode of something, invariably someone has the torrent up and available within 24hrs. PVRs are nice, but in the not to distant future those receivers will be sitting next to the eight track player in the garage on the shelf next to the National Geographics of naked pigmy woman (maybe that's where the nipple rings, etc originated). WHATEVAH, JIM
