At what point is a Tivo no longer a Tivo ? Stripping out, removing what was great about the original Tivo and injecting Ads, Tivo becomes just another controlled crappy DVR.
I'am afraid Tivo has hit that point.
Still loving my DTV series 2 Tivo's, but when they die, what to do then?
Thats true.. but your love for YOUR tivo isnt paying their bills.
If they need to partner up and lean down to stay a viable profit turning company, then what can you really say bad about them? They are trying to survive. Just like any other company out there.

All true. The question is. When you stop being a "Unique" product and just become another run of the mill product, then what?.. Sadly my "TIVO" days maybe over, and I'll look for the least objectionable product, Not "Tivo".

Well, I bought the hardware (DirecTivo) twice and I pay $6/month to DTV, which I assume is passed on to Tivo...

OUR love for tivo should END after the box is purchased and NOT be getting nicked for listings every month!
now they're putting ads in[isn't that what people originally bought a tivo for]
DIE TIVO DIE
