This really isn't a big deal IMO & has been poorly reported/sensationalised in this piece. The sampler episode described appears as an extra entry on the main menu. I was a bit taken aback when I first saw it, but then realised that it might actually be a good thing. My TIVO viewing habits are such that I now *never* sit down to "watch TV", only to watch something that has recorded. That inevitably means that I rely on word-of-mouth to hear about new programmes that might interest me rather than happening to stumble across them. If TIVO push the *occasional* promo programme at me, it's not intrusive, and I can decide within the first few minutes of viewing whether or not its worth watching - really no harm done. Patrick
