I'm sure this has been asked before -
Can I purchase my own Motorola CableCard (on eBay, for example), and activate it with Verizon for use in my TiVo?
Thanks!
Not without paying a monthly rental fee anyway.
If I buy my own CableCard, how can Verizon charge a rental fee? I'm not renting it from them...?
If they even support a user purchased CC, they would still charge the fee.
It is not only the cost of the item, but the support they provide if you have an issue.
Support? This is Verizon we are talking about.
They charge you for your own device because they can, not for support. Which doesn't exist.
