If you want to get the program guide you will have to pay a fee. This makes the device usable. I seem to recall a YouTube video that said without the guide it maybe usable after a fashion but difficult. I strongly suggest you - Check the TIVO web site, or call TIVO support, to determine what the fee is and if it can be used without the guide.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.There is a monthly fee, approximately $7 as I recall - with a discount for paying it once annually. This covers the cost of keeping your box's programming current - the channels you get, the shows and times, etc. This is necessary in order to view and record programming.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I believe you get a month free, but when I registered mine I also paid for the service during the process, so not sure if it would work with out going through the process. I know it requires a paid service to utilize the system, you can do it monthly or a one time charge, if you plan for long time use you would be better to do the one time process. Hope this helps.
