I have been with DirecTV since 1995, but when they transitioned to HD and discontinued TiVo, I switched to Time Warner Cable (TWC). In 2009, I bought 3 TiVo HD's with wireless adapters and external hard drives. I spent one awful year struggling with the cable cards and participated in several threads on this forum to no avail. After a year of frustration, I gave up, sold all my TiVo's on eBay and returned to DirecTV. I swore I would never do business with TWC again.
Fast forward to today. I just purchased a TiVo Roamio OTA to use in tandem with my DirecTV Genie HR44. My question is about the Bolt. I purposely did not buy the Bolt because I saw it uses Cable Cards which I absolutely cannot stand. :mad: I spent so many hours on the phone with TWC being transferred from person to person who knew nothing about Cable Cards. One time a technician came out with a box of 100 Cable Cards and he could not find 3 that would work. The two he found only worked for a few days.
Anyone out there using the Bolt on TWC with any success? Has anything changed in the last few years? :rolleyes:
I see TiVo well positioned with the oncoming influx of streaming and OTA programming. Hopefully they can stick it to the cable and satellite companies that handcuffed them in the past. :up:
