I’ve had my Tablo about 25 days and am ready to pay for one of the subscriptions. Not anticipating hating Tablo any time soon, I am leaning towards the lifetime subscription. But I want to make sure it is MY lifetime and not the device’s lifetime like those morons over at TIVO pull on their customers.
The subscription is not tied to a specific device. Of course, this still means the “lifetime” could be yours or Tablo’s, whichever ends first.
@Kickthefog yes to your id not to the device, which means you could get multiple Tablo’s and you do not have to pay each time like those Tivo guys (I was one)
@Kickthefog - It means the lifetime of the company TABLO not the device. My first tablo lasted 4 months before failure so I am glad it isn’t attached to the actual device, though who knows how long the company will last so my “lifetime” bet still could prove to be a bad one!
or Tablo's, whichever ends first.
Thanks for confirming Doug. I appreciate it.
Thanks to you guys also JeStep and Sleeper. I see you responded while i was typing the above.
@kickthefog - We try to be as fair as possible so any Tablo you have now or in the future will be covered by your subscription. You’ll just have to add the new unit IDs within the subscription portal.

I’ll soon be another of those lifetime subscribers. It’s a bargain, not necessary as I’m SO used to manually setting up recordings - I have had VCRs and DVD recorders longer than I can recall, but when I get home to find that my wife has already recorded individual shows, a series of shows and all without me even showing her the screen to do so, well…

@TabloTV - Can I install a second Tablo TV in another location (vacation home) using my Lifetime Subscription?

You sure can!
And we won’t even ask for an invite to the cottage.

My 6-month freebie period (thanks Nuvyyo!) is ending, and I just re-upped for Lifetime.
hi,
@rem736 - If you read the fine print, we do cap it at 10 units. This should more than cover any kind of personal or light commercial use. After that we’d work it out with whoever decided they really need 100 Tablo boxes.
@TabloTV is the cap active Tablo’s? Say I go through 10 in the next few years for whatever reason, new model, upgrade, etc.
Holy cow - 10 quads, record 40 channels at once? I barely keep up with the TV that’s live and a few recordings here and there. In fact I recently found a box of DVD-RWs of shows we’d recorded in 2012 and 2013 we forgot about, a couple hundred episodes of shows - some long gone. I found some older Smallville that I need to catch up on, too. Can’t imagine more than 1 quad for us, maybe due to UPGRADE or a second home if I win the lottery… but this quad will handle my two shop TVs and our 3 house TVs unless the 5 cats decide they want to watch the nature channel while we’re watching other stuff.
I’ve got something like 5 days left, I had better get to buying that lifetime subscription.
