This is debatable. I suspect that since tivos are all the same and most 
everyone is pretty satisfied with the tv-out quality you don't hear many 
complaints. With tv-out from a computer people are using various video 
cards, various drivers, various distros, or scan converters. I suspect 
that many of them are happy (like me) and do get very good output 
quality, but since there are many more failure points you hear 
complaints from a number of people who are not satisfied with their 
tv-out quaility.
