Dear Tivo Customer,
"We noticed that you currently receive at least part of your TV programming from the Voom Satellite Service. Voom has announced that they will cease operations on April 30, 2005. We wanted to remind you that your TiVo box can be used with any program source - antenna, cable or satellite service. We hope that you will continue to enjoy the TiVo experience with your new program source..........................."

Ummm... yes it will, though the recordings will only be in SD. I use a Tivo to record Voom right now, and though I'd like an HD DVR I am reasonably happy with the quality I get from the Tivo Series 2.

CDH.

Of course you can record with it, but it doesn't record HD as you acknowledge.

yes i got the same message today on my dvd recorder with tivo pioneer with up to 80 hrs record time, it did a great job at recording voom programming, plus it has dd out, and component video connection out, you cant get that with a plain old stand alone tivo, i did alot of recording with it from voom and created alot of dvds, the pic quality on it is great!!!

Haven't checked my Tivo yet but I'm sure the message is there!

BTW I have a "plain old stand alone Tivo Series 2" and may not have component and dd out but I do have Tivo to Go which is a really great feature and works like a charm (which you can't get on the Pioneer)!
Had to speak up...

I was one of the many waiting for the Voom DVR...
