  1. Why is this news? by Skim123 · · Score: 5

    Buy a TiVo, you are paying your own money... you decide to tinker with it... why would the TiVo folks have any say in the matter? Don't you buy a TiVo? You aren't renting it, correct? I don't see why TiVo would have any stance on this. It would be like Ford saying, "We don't have any problem with people changing their own oil filters." That being said, why again is this news?

    I could not justify my existence if I were a turkey farmer. Would I terminate myself? Undoubtably, yes.
