    Ahhh, Joe's back with his amazing reading comprehension skills again. Maybe you missed the part where this is referring to a problem with the new HD TiVo devices? But that's only mentioned in the fucking article title, so I can see how you might've missed it.

    Does anyone remember when TV simple to use, and most of the shows were better?

    My goodness, the media industry has turned watching TV into something about as fun as dealing with Microsoft software.
