Hi mnb,

Well I have one TiVo that is five years old and one just over a year old. They are both working fine. If one did die early you can always get it repaired.

I have one lifetime so I get no bill for it. The other they charge my credit card directly. I will be honest I don't know if they will bill you or not.

To learn all about TiVo check their web site here - https://www3.tivo.com

Check the TiVo user forum here - http://www.tivocommunity.com

The TiVo Community Store often has good bargains for TiVo’s or accessories. Check them for current pricing along with your local Best Buy - http://store.tivocommunity.com/merchant....

You need either a phone line or Internet connection for TiVo to download software updates and program information.
