We have had one for a year now. We love it. We bought an HD set, Tivo won't transfer the lifetime subscription to another box. What a waste. It's a guaranteed ripoff of a subscriber. How long will a box last? How often does new tech come out? We should've read the fine print.

That is complete BS!!

They are going to piss off a lot of people as new technology comes out like you said.

I had 3 tivos on Direct TV. When I went out and got a 60" HD TV, I call D-TV to get upgrade, was going to be almost 800 per tivo, plus new splitter box and dish upgrade....

I am now back on Comcat and get my DVR from them with HD recording for 10 a month per box...and I only need 1 cable to do 2 tuner recording, not the dual feeds like on D-TV.

No cable for us. We live way up in the mountains. Satellite's the only game in our "town", population 107. Saaaaaalute!

Thanks though.

Somebody shoot me. I know that song!

Yeah, the subscriptions don't transfer, that's why if you see them on ebay, they won't/shouldn't sell for less than the cost of the lifetime subscription. I just built my own unit and am very happy with it.... Don't have to worry about monthly or lifetime charges etc...
