>>In the end, it will be very difficult for DirectTV to jettison TiVo, assuming they want to. How many subs do they lose?<< John - I was going to say that they'd lose me for sure. But when I think about it, if they offered me a really great deal on a DVR with massive storage and HD capabilities, I might just take it. I'd sure miss the TiVo interface, though. On the other hand, as long as I can just continue to use my present DirecTiVo unit, I'll be inclined to stick with DirecTV. Nothing else out there offers the same experience for me. - Allen
