We upgraded to TIVO from Virgin about 6 months ago and quite like the new system. If you don't know anything about it, it kind of works a bit like Spotify. If you don't know how that works then...
... it basically 'learns' the types of show that you watch and then pre-records things that are similar to those based on what other people like with the same preferences. The feature is not amazing but there have been a few things that i've watched because it's found something that I might like. Anyway, I had an idea last night of improving the way they show adverts inbetween shows.
If they're already tracking what I watch I bet it isn't long before they target what adverts are shown. If you're a man who's into sport and action films, what's the point of showing you an advert for tampons?

Getting Tivo
We're getting Tivo next week and a super fast broadband connection. Not sure if i'm going to let April use the remote mind, I hear that it remembers what you watch and records things automatically depending on your likes and dislikes.
