I'm living in Denmark, where you just can't buy a TiVo, or ReplayTV for
that matter. As far as I know, TiVo is a US only thing, and they are
experimenting in the UK. So here in Denmark, at least, there is a market
for MythTV.
Next question is of course what happens if its a success. Will TiVo then
come and wipe out the competition (us!) with their much cheaper
equipment once the market has been cultivated? I would...
But TiVo is not available everywhere, unfortunately. I had a TiVo when I
lived in the US! Besides, MythTV is more fun...
