This is not funny. This... this is a morality tale about the evils of sake.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Well, you don't need to purchase one anymore. The hardware's to be "free".

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Well, I am not sure that the hardware is "free"...because the most you can buy is a 3 year option.

Well, crap. Guess I won't be upgrading to the Series 3 after all. (Unless they do the thing where I can switch my current lifetime plan to the new box, it'll be far cheaper to just get an HD-DVR from my cable company.)

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

yeah, I think Tivo is shooting themselves in the foot. Especially with Series 3 being released soon.
