Wait. How do you transfer lifetime from one device to another? And how to do you like the Premier?

Thanks!

The MSD discount brings the monthly TIVO service to $15 but I'd prefer to invest in lifetime rather than continue to pay a monthly expense. On the flipside what will be available in 2 years DVR wise. Decisions decisions.

Hmm... I must have been smoking something; looking at my account, I still have the original TiVo with the Lifetime on it. I think maybe I got a special price on the Premier (XL) when I bought it. Sorry to mislead.

We have been happy with the Premier. It has a couple of quirks (every once in a while, when you click the TiVo button, it shows the THX splash screen, but that isn't a bid deal as I just click the TiVo button again to get where I want to go) and the new HD menu is STILL not ready for prime-time (something that TiVo acknowledges). But otherwise, it has worked great for us (though, because if the issues we had with our HD TiVo, we got the three-year extended warranty).
