TiVo Bug Shuts Out Many Series 1 TiVo Owners?
Didion Sprague writes "A bug in recently released DirecTv/TiVo software is allegedly causing major chaos with many TiVo users -- forcing many users over the past few days to upgrade their Series 1 Tivo boxes to newer, Series 2 models (which retail for $79). Apparently lots of folks on the TiVo Community forum and DBS forums are frustrated and angry. The bug has apparently been reproduced and causes the video stream to freeze when a combination of factors are met. DirecTv has been offering users who complain a $79 credit -- but hasn't admitted the problem, let alone offered up a timetable for a fix. The problem only occurs with the DirecTv TiVo boxes -- not the standalone models."

If he meant in the 80's then i have to add that rap wasn't even on the scene in the 80's. It was all rock until Run DMC collaberated with AeroSmith in 1986, after that, rap began its climb into mainstream which took until the 90's.
