I have been promoting MythTV as an alternative to TiVo on Geekzone.co.nz.

Unfortunately much of what I have said has been rebuffed. They seem to want
an off the shelf replacement which seems to me a bit weird on Geekzone.

This morning when someone said ".lack of a full 7 day EPG via standard EIT
data is what's limiting the alternatives."
I replied - "My MythTV setup is still receiving up to 8 days of EIT data."
to which he replied - "Depends on where you are getting it from.  I can
guarantee it's not from the terrestrial EIT service."

I give up.
