I have both. I started off with TIVO and I love it. Then came HD. That's when the cable DVR worked it's way in the home. It just seems easier than trying to make tivo work.
That and even if you get cable cards you still can't quite get everything. But I do miss the tivo interface and user controls. Maybe if Tivo still did lifetime I would pony up for a new HD Tivo.
I wonder how future proof a TIVO is with cable changing/undecided how they bring in hd. That is one upside to the cable dvr, it will work. If the TIVO box works as well with HD cable as it did SD cable I would switch. I just don't think it's their yet, so I suffer with the cable dvr.

Highly Ranked

TiVo started offering lifetime again a while back.
