I often find that many - if not most - people who say Tivo is dead are the ones who haven't used one in years.

I've used a Tivo exclusively since around 2002, and while they did go a long stretch there without any innovation, I think they're doing a pretty brilliant job lately. They made a pretty huge shift that integrated streaming video with regular recordings. They have a box that's designed for OTA users to appeal to cord cutters. They were VERY early to the multi-room set top box setup, if not the first ones to do it.

I still consider the Tivo to be the best way to watch my TV. It does the best job of organizing the programming, the UI looks better than the others, the remote is still king, and the mobile app works really well (on iPhone at least).
