I have 2 DirecTV TiVos, and they are covered by a lifetime subscription, like Mike Johnson said. DirecTV stopped offering lifetime subscriptions for their TiVo DVRs sometime in 2003-2004, if memory serves. Many have reported that they are hard pressed to even get DirecTV support reps who will acknowledge that such subscriptions once existed. For those of us who bought them, we are "grandfathered" and do not pay the monthly DVR fee.
Oooooo. I didn't know that (bought mine in 2005). Nice.
