Slashdot Comments from Bryan Ischo, a TiVo Employee
It can be very disheartening to work for an innovator in a marketplace where large established companies have such control over the distribution channels…. It’s kind of funny to me that people will pay $80 cable bills without a whimper but will cry foul at the concept of paying $13 a month to TiVo to make the cable service so much more worthwhile…. Cable DVRs suck. Most people would be much happier with a TiVo and would find the extra expense to be justified.

Unfortunately, people don’t always make logical purchase decisions. TiVo needs to budle some IP content with the guide service for the $13/month. That will help stop all this moaning. IP will aslo help TiVo show people there are other ways to get good content than through your doupoly cable/satellite provider.
