Personal Consumer Issues • Re: TiVo vs Xfinity set top boxes

... I believe my Xfinity bill that Xfinity is discontinuing cable cards starting in October. In fact, per some online discussion, you can't get a replacement cable card as they no longer have them. ...
I wanted to reduce my decrease my internet plan after a major recent rate hike... but to do that I needed to reprogram my cable card (or so they said)... and [in the sacramento area] was told that cable cards were no longer available, nor supported for reprogramming (this was July 2024).

So, I made no internet changes[yet], and have started my research for replacement systems - knowing my cable card is on borrowed time in its lifespan.

I've heard that TiVo Stream 4K has similar Guide UI for local channels, and integrates various streaming services well (including YouTubeTV). That is intriguing, but I also heard YouTube TV doesn't integrate its live channels into the TiVo Stream guide [shucks]. I'd love informed input on this.
