When they first introduced online scheduling I suggested to TiVo that they allow users to create 'sub-accounts' that have limited powers, such as just being able to schedule recordings and *not* have full access to MMA. That way owners could give roommates, other family members (the kids, etc), access to schedule things without mucking with the account. *AND* it would allow you to use a sub-account with 3rd parties and not give away the whole farm. Unfortunately, they haven't done that. Audio - No problem. If you want, repost the comment on the correct entry and I'll delete these. :-) Dave - Good point.

I had two windows open at the same time and posted to the wrong one. Oops. This was actually a response to a comment on the Dish Network article.

First, the quality SUCKED compared to my digital cable. Second, they tried to raise the rates while I was UNDER CONTRACT. I finally got out of the contract early due to a technicality; I never initialled that I wanted an 18 month contact on the installation work order. Back to cable. Not to happy with the TiVo and HDTV cable box setup but once I get my TiVo HD I will be much more happy. I also had a seriously disappointing experience with Dish Network.
