How will the new customers affect TiVo?

I need you IT types to speculate on how these new customers will effect TiVo. Does more revenue mean better features, poorer service, more and far better IPTV is my hope, I'm tied of TV programmers scheduling all things of interest at the same times.

TiVo's Comcast Rollout

I've been waiting to see this TiVo-Comcast service for awhile now, <br />but now that the article indicates that they are going to be using <br />Scientific-American boxes, I won't even consider it... I'm currently <br />using CableCards in my TV's &#38; TiVo HD, so that I don't have to <br />have those cheap ugly boxes in my house...

What else?

What sort of TiVo/Comcast rollout were you expecting? The plan from the very beginning was always to incorporate TiVo software on Comcast provided settop boxes.

Too bad Comcast sucks

They never keep service appointments, they never fix anything <br />right on the first, second, or third time, they over-charge for <br />everything, and they can't deliver 20 minutes of HD video <br />without some form of glitch that wipes out the audio and/or <br />video. <br /><br />I cancelled them, and I use my two TiVO series 3's with an ariel <br />antenna, and my life is more joyous as a result. Any shows I <br />miss that were cable only get purchased through iTunes or <br />through Amazon Unboxed. I couldn't be happier, and I'm $100 a <br />month richer.
