There's an interesting discussion about why "Tivo hasn't tipped" at customerevangelists.com. 

TiVo is a cause, not a product. Every single thing the company does should be about the cause: rallying people to change their lives. How many times have you heard people say that TiVo has changed their life? President Colleen Barrett and CEO Jim Parker say that Southwest isn't an airline, it's a cause. That's TiVo, too.

 Has anyone read their book?  It looks interesting.  I like the fact that they sell a signed unabridged version on CD read by the authors.
