If tivo can find another source of revenue it may give them reason to give the lifetime subscription option back. Right now I'm thinking that $150 a year is a bit steep, I'm looking into putting the $300 I would have put into a lifetime subscription into hardware for a mythtv set up.
I don't really care if they know what I watch. I think if anything it may improve what's on TV. Who knows it may keep some of those "brilliant but canceled" shows on the air for a scond season.
I think the worse side effect that tivo, or dvr's, will bring is product placement. Did anyone see "The Island", the most entertaining part of that movie was finding the product of the scene. And, when the credits finally started rolling.
As soon as they disable the 30 second skip hidden feature I'm defiantly gone.
