Hmm. I was thinking of outing the TiVo for a sky+! Main reason - well
only reason - is to be able to record one channel and watch another. I
assume if you have a RF distribution system, you can transmit more
than one channel - or is that only if you record?
What would a TiVo with lifetime sub and upgrade to 40 + 120 GB be
worth nowadays? Ive not checked on fleabay for a while!
