I have around 4 or 5 original series one Thomson TiVo's in storage (all used).

Is there any demand for these anymore ?? - Trying to decide what to do with them.

Thanks

I'm guessing that most people already using S1 TiVo have a spare (or two). I can't see any new people joining up as there's too many alternatives available now.

I'm in a similar situation as I need to make some space in the attic. I'm probably going to end up stripping them down - cachecard, turbonet, power supply, disc mounting frame, motherboard, remote control.

Anyone else have any ideas?

Also cannot see new people getting a Tivo
I have multiple Tivos in various states. Don't feel competent enough to do much with them.
Seems to be normal these days to sign up for a service like Netflix, Prime and others even though Tivo does the same and more.
Big benefit to me with a Tivo is being able to jump through ads. Not possible on commercial channels on a stick.

Whenever I mention Tivo to any non users the eyes glaze over
