Is TiVo really worth it?
I was considering purchasing a Roamio Pro TiVo unit with several minis so I could have whole home DVR service. Right now I'm a cable subscriber and I have to pay monthly rates on my set top boxes which included 2 dvrs. What I am obviously wanting is whole home dvr service with the ability to watch and play back any recording on any tv. So I call TiVo up and I'm asking about pricing and I find out even though you purchase the equipment, which is expensive I might add, you still have to pay a monthly subscription on each device you have. I honestly think it's a complete rip off. Any thoughts? Thanks!

I've never had (or wanted, or priced) a DVR,
but I understand the potential usefulness of them.
Properly defined, "rip off" is a term that means "steal" or "theft".
Nothing that provides a valuable benefit to those who use it
can possibly be "a complete rip off".
If you don't think it is worth what it would cost
according to the benefits you would derive from it,
you don't have to spend your money on it.

I and my 'significant other' have had TiVos with lifetime service for 10 years or so, and we really love them. We bought them all used, so got them cheap. The 'lifetime service' means you don't have to pay the monthly fee.
