Same happened when TiVo first came in, new content options were only on that to pull customers away from the V boxes.

And as V6 customers can upgrade with just some new remotes being sent and a software upgrade, as long as the differences are clearly explained, it's not a huge leap to do.
I renegotiated my VM contact a few months ago and at no point did they even offer switching to 360 from V6 - I think they are missing a trick not trying to get people to do so at that point.

From what I've read in here, I'm not sure they could call it an upgrade though, as it sounds like you lose out on more features that you gain?
