Ahhh, I wasnt aware of that.
And I do understand. I just, I dont know, Its
basicly not much worth it if you only have the box and not the service, so
in my opinion its just as easy to basicly just rent a box. You dont have to
worry about buying a new one to get more updated features, and your not stuck
with an extra box/reciever if for some reason you stop paying for the monthly
service.

One thing I think didn't get across in this thread on
Tivo was that Tivo doesn't sell any hardware. The DVR units are made by
other companies like Sony, Philips, etc. Tivo sells *ONLY* programming
so if they were to allow you to record for free (which uses the daily guide to
allow the recording) they would never make any money.
It's like telephone service. You can go out and
buy a super duper techno model telephone that costs $300 and unless you buy
the telephone service from the Telco all you have is a $300
paperweight.
