Any thoughts vs. Replay TV?
Also, are there no longer different brands of TiVo units? IIRC, Sony and Panasonic (maybe), and perhaps others) also made Tivo units. Is that no longer the case? And does it matter? Should one just get the Tivo-branded unit listed on the website?
Also, get the "lifetime" plan or the monthly? In other words, should I expect the unit to last longer than 24 mos.?

I have had two friends already replace their units with the lifetime plan, which means they would have had to buy new lifetime plans. They both switched to TWC's dvr instead.
In fact, we and most of our friends use dvrs. It's $10/month. The AI is not as good as TiVo or replay and the storage capacity is smaller (between 30-40 hours). Overall, it works beautifully. It has the capability of recording two programs simultaneously while playing back a third, built-in picture in picture, etc.
