for personal, non-commercial use and that the TiVo DVR or TiVo
software will not be used for Third Party Content to be copied or
displayed before a public audience without authorization from the

users of any TiVo software who infringe the copyrights of others.
6Changes to Your TiVo Service. TiVo may at its discretion and
from time to time change, add, or remove features and functionality
of the TiVo service or the TiVo DVR without notice. If you are
dissatisfied with any such changes to the TiVo service, you may
immediately cancel your use of the TiVo service as provided in
Section 14 (“Termination of Service”). TiVo reserves the right to
discontinue one, some, or all of the features of the TiVo service you
receive at any time at its discretion. TiVo may at its discretion
discontinue the provision of software updates to certain TiVo DVRs.
This means that while other TiVo DVRs may receive continued
software updates and functionality; TiVo is not required to provide
such updates to your TiVo DVR. Additionally, the level of service
TiVo provides may not be the same on each TiVo DVR; a given TiVo
DVR may support different features and functionality, and TiVo is
under no obligation to provide all features and functionality to your
TiVo DVR.
