I've had a BOLT for a year. For OTA and cable it's fine, but for streaming there are software problems which limit it quite a bit. TiVo doesn't seem to be doing much to fix them. It typically takes months to fix the ones the do - which is about one-third. For example: The "unified search" only finds about 70% of the shows carried by streaming sources (Amazon, Hulu, Netflix). For those it finds, it often doesn't list some (or most) of the episodes for a season.

I find new problems at a faster rate than TiVo fixes them, so it's a losing battle I'm afraid.
