I love you, Tivo

 

I love you, Tivo

You have been a trusted friend and companion for 5 years, after our first try failed. Not one mistake, mistep, fail or falter. You have been super. Now you are worth next to nothing and I am selling you for $10 on Craigslist. Sorry. But that new HD...

TIVO is one of the few discretionary electronic purchases in our home that we would absolutely replace immediately if necessary. They are expensive to purchase and if you purchase a lifetime support option, even more so. However, I would recommend this...

I could never leave the house again, thanks to my TIVO, they are upgradeable, and have the BEST program guide/interface of anyone. There Tivo to go is very glitchy at this point, but the TIVO service itself is top notch, I am about to get my 3rd tivo...

Owned it for 2 years now... LOVE IT !

In 2 years we have had no problems at all with the TiVO box itself (80 hrs version), and the remote is still in excellent shape, which is really surprising considering the very, very heavy daily use of some of its buttons. I started updating the...

Tivo -- the good, the bad, but mostly the good. :)

We've had our TiVo Series 2 DVR for nearly three years (hard to imagine it's been that long but there you have it). For the most part, we've loved it. We're spoiled with pausing live TV, we love the season pass capability, and we love the wish lists....

Great concept, problems with product, lots of hidden gotchas

I never had a DVR (aside from my computer) before, so when I finally managed to get my Tivo all hooked up, I was really impressed. I especially love the "Season Pass" feature which will pick out all the times your favorites program airs, and let you...

A "100" on a scale of 1-5

TiVo is just the best thing (literally) since sliced bread. It is EASY-EASY-EASY and it is the smartest 'DVR' on the market (I have owned one of ALL types of DVR's). It is the simplist to use and has more features than any other DVR. It is the only DVR...

Greatest thing since sliced bread!

I know most people rave about their Tivo, and I am just another one of the masses! I won't go into all the features and benefits in my review. However when you hook Tivo into your home network and download a small program to run on your computer, you...
