Re: Ditch the contract and you may have a deal

Let me quote my original post:

quote:
With WoW, at least I can understand that some, if not most, of the monthly fee is used to pay for bandwidth and server maintenance and upgrades.
I already acknowledged that it costs money to maintain the servers and pay the people that do so. However, I pointed out that what TiVo is saying amounts to: "Pay us $300 for this DVR that SHOULD be able to record and timeshift WITHOUT our advertisements listing service but doesn't unless you pay us a monthly fee so we can make money off of you AND the advertisers." They're sucking through both ends of the straw.
