You Bought The Darn Thing.
You Shouldn't Have To Keep Paying To Use It!**
iPods and DVD players don't have monthly fees. Neither does your TV, your microwave, or your hair dryer. Then there's TiVo, brazenly asking you for as much as $12.95 a month for the privilege of using something you already bought. †
Let's see, that's $155.40 a year, which, coincidentally, is the same amount they can charge if you terminate a new monthly payment plan.* But you wouldn't want to do that either because, as their website clearly states, "If you cancel the TiVo service, the DVR will no longer function". OUCH!
Moxi borrowed its usage-fee policy from your coffee maker and video camera (and common sense): You own the darn thing, so once you've paid for it you can use it without paying Moxi another dime for DVR service fees. ††
