The lifetime service option was there in the early days, then it went away for a while. When I bought my S1, the box was $400 and the lifetime service was $200. It seems that's reversed now, but you're still in for $600 no matter how you look at it.
I've been tempted to get a second unit and get lifetime on that one as well, but I seldom watch TV in any other rooms, so other than the novelty of the connection, it wouldn't be a very good way to spend the money. Better spent on a monster hard drive for the unit.
