I am currently using Virgin via the V6 box.
I am receiving messages to upgrade to 360.
what are the pros and cons of the 360 again the V6.
Thanks..,,
Your best bet is to use the forum's search facility, there have been numerous threads discussing this.
TV360 is designed as an "online-first" box from the ground-up, it has recording added for the UK market, but is fundamentally different to the TiVo-platform which had streaming added to a good recording product.

Ok, thank you. 🤞🏻
Some of the missing features are as follows; Quickplay (play 10% faster with audio), Wishlists (where you can set the box to record programs on certain subjects or featuring certain people), undelete, series link+, suggestions, setting of series links for programs not in the current TV guide, ethernet control, keyboard support via USB, turning off the mini-preview screen while browsing menus, switching between tuners with constant buffering, skip-back on fast-forward, default recording options, cancelling individual recordings from a series link, multi-channel series links, radio channels allowing recording of radio, separation of recordings between boxes, watching recordings when internet is not available and probably a few others I've forgotten.
Also, extra boxes do not have their own hard disks or tuners (unless converted from a V6 box), so you lose storage space and recording ability and are also reliant on the main box being on to watch and set recordings and also on having a decent wi-fi signal (or ethernet cable) between the two boxes when watching recordings. If the boxes are used by independent family members i.e. older children living at home, then there is also the issue of recordings being pooled across all boxes, so everyone's recordings are mixed up, rather than being separated. This also means that if there is a show that both people watch and one person watches and deletes it then it is gone for the other person as well, and can't be recovered due to the lack of undelete.
Quickplay is the missing feature that has always stopped me from "upgrading". I use it too much.
I believe there were some issues with TiVo being sued for Quickmode and the patents involved. A great feature yes with the pitch correction, but I am doubtful if this will ever be added.
