Yeah, that's the motivation. I'd still be using my TiVo with it.
Yeah, I know that a Tivo's will function with Dish. The problem is the dual-tuners. We were content with cable + single tuner Tivo years ago. But after going to our Dish DVR w/ dual tuners, I don't know how my family would go back to just a single-tuner Tivo. I don't miss the 'which show do we value more?' debates. Having a dual-tuner DVR has solved that 99.9% of the time.
I know that Tivo now has dual-tuner models that work quite nicely with cable. I've installed one for my parents. But I'm pretty sure you can still only use one of the tuners with Dish.
If someone can tell me otherwise, I will buy another Tivo
today !
