Yes, I did, thank you. But it doesn't that I can see answer my stupid question: Do you need to subscribe to the content you want to watch via your cable company before you can actually subscribe for recording via Tivo. Maybe it's an exceedingly dumb question, but if one simply reads the Tivo advertising copy it would never occur to anyone who doesn't know much about the subject (:raiseshand: ) that the Tivo subscriptions aren't enough by themselves -- in fact the ad copy goes out of its way to make it sound like ALL you need is Tivo.
