Redman,
Yes, it is the same. No, right now, I would say that's not the only drawback, IMO. Skipping thru commercials last night while watching Medium was difficult. But as I said, I have to give it more time to get used to it.
Me. My Tivo broke on Christmas day:( "Generally happy" is not really a term I would use to describe the transition. So far, I'm not liking the "seriesLink" and seriously miss seasonpass. The serieslink is recording repeats, which is a problem I have seen mentioned several times on other threads...
