Shame they don't have a 2tb or had mini boxes for multi room. Like Sky Q.
I agree they probably wouldn't but everything else is rented even if you pay £99.99 to rent a set-top-box that currently has Tivo software on it. Unless it is made clear, some people might foolishly make assumptions that is like all the other equipment. Sooner or later they will get sat on or the battery will fail and customers will be asking for a replacement. Presumably VM will need to provide the necessary support too, when they stop working properly.
