6 Changes 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.
ACTIVATING AND USING THE TIVO SERVICE
7 Eligible Subscribers. You must be at least 18 years of age to assume
the responsibilities of this Agreement. Minors may use the TiVo service
only if one of their parents or legal guardians assumes the
responsibilities of this Agreement and thereby assumes full
responsibility for the minor’s use of the TiVo service.
8 Subscription Fees. You agree to pay your subscription fee in advance.
Your subscription fee will cover the TiVo service received via a TiVo

of subscription payment options that may change over time. You may
switch payment options at the end of each period. If for any reason you
need to reactivate your subscription, you may be charged a reactivation
fee. If you are signing up for the TiVo service under a promotional

multiple TiVo service subscriptions under the same account
information, additional terms and conditions may apply. Whatever your
subscription payment option, your subscription fee does not include any
services, features or functionality other than the TiVo service.
