Changing the user's settings without asking or even notifying is inexcusable.
So far I've only found three things that are an improvement over the old UI. In decreasing order of importance:
1) It can now be set to come up on the channel it was turned off on, or on the home screen. Forcing the "smart channel" option on the old UI was inexcusable.
2) When deleting a timer, I'm no longer kicked back to the top of the timer list so I have to scroll back down if I want to review or edit more timers.
3) Porn channels can now be removed from the guide without locking the entire system.
