Re: Tivo isnt worth it

said by FutureMon:

The Dish network visited my house just yesterday with a "Free TiVo" offer. but there is still the question about what happens when the company goes out of business...OOooohh Free TiVo that I can't use...lolol

- FM
2 things, #1 dish network does not offer TiVo, directv does #2 directivo boxes download their stuff from directv's satellites, so it probably doesn't matter if tivo is around or not, as long as directv supports the boxes, which will probably go away way before tivo goes out of business

TiVo is a brand name, at worst a larger company would probably buy them out and continue the service

notice that is from a 3rd party reseller, and that says free satellite equipment and free installation, and free tivo at the top

either they are giving away an actual standalone tivo box separate from the dish stb (unlikely)

or

they are lying about the exact equipment they are giving, and it is more likely they are really giving out the dish brand dvr and calling it a tivo

edit: after looking at their website they are giving a dish dvr and not a tivo, their ad they left you is a lie
