Steve,
I have heard of people who do not have the service. What I do is to buy anything like this on my AmEx credit card and they double the warranty for free. That way I pay the $250 or whatever Tivo charges and if the Tivo recorder dies anytime during the first 2-3 years its replaced by AmEx for free, so its worth the $10 a month I pay for the service.
I am always getting very pissed off when I want to watch Formula One or something that is prempted by some basketball game and Tivo takes care of this, shuttling the recorder to start when the program I want to see actually starts and not just what the schedule says.
