The feedback would be when you press a button. When I'm fast- 
forwarding through a commercial or through part fo a show, it's nice  
to hear a beep letting me know that I've pressed the button and  
jumped to the next level of fast-forward because it is not always  
apparent on-screen. I may be in 2x FF when I want to be in 3x FF  
mode. If I hear a beep when the button is pressed, I know that I'm in  
teh right mode.

   This beep exists on Tivo (it is a preference - it can be shut  
off). I LOVE it. My brother shut it off on his tivo - he cannot stand  
it.

   To each, his own. . .
