I truly love my TiVo! [Posted on 2008-03-10]
I have had my TiVo unit for almost 4 years now and I don't know what I would do with out. It records all of my shows even while I'm at work. I've considered cancelling and getting the DVR that my cable company offers but I have tried it and Tivo's interaction features are 100% better. You can select and search movies by director, movie title, actor and/or category.
I've already spread the word around my family and they've all ordered Tivo and have been nothing but satisfied.
I also want to mention that the unit I've had for 4 years was purchased refurbished from Tivo directly and have not had any problems besides the occasional glitch where it says it's recording one show but is really recording another (and I believe that has to do with the constant line up changes from my cable company)
If I was to recommend one thing to any random person in the street it would be to buy a Tivo unit and just let the good times roll.
NO TIVO SUBSCRIPTION: NO RECORD CAPABILITY [Posted on 2008-03-31]
We purchase a Series2 Tivo when they were first avialable and quite happy with the cababilities and reliability of the unit. We purchased a Series3 Jan 2007 for HD and two channel recording capability, as well as increased hard drive capacity and we're pleased to find it quiet enough for the bedroom.
Tivo, at the time of our purchase, offered (for $199) to transfer the lifetime subscription we had on the Series2 to the new Series3 unit. This offer included the continuation of subscription service on the old unit for one year.
Because the old unit is in our guest room and rarely used now, I intended to allow the subscription service to lapse and record by time and channel. To my surprise, I find now that one year has gone by that, unless I pay a monthly subscription fee, the Series2 Tivo unit is useless. That is because Tivo software now blocks any manner of recording with the Series2 unit.

A calculated gamble [Posted on 2008-09-18]
I read many Web Forum discussions about the TiVo Series 2 DVR. Many experts stated flatly that the machine will not operate without a TiVo contract. I have recorded a few hours of programming with no TiVo service. It is necessary to log in with the sevice to receive the operating system over the phone line; for this there is no charge. I do not recommend this product for the faint of heart. For the technically inclined, the machine will provide a lasting source of amusement at a relatively small investment. The vendor gave excellent service.
