Tivo and Pay Per View question

So I decided to order the Royal Rumble this Sunday, and had a question...

Can it be Tivo'd? If so, can I keep it as long as I want, or is there some rule that prevents you from keeping a PPV event on the hard drive for too long?

Just wondering....

I've Tivo'd a few PPV movies -- I can't imagine it would be any different for the Royal Rumble. In fact, Tivo knows it's a PPV event and (I believe) defaults to "Save Until I Delete".

A while ago, I could swear that there was a story about how TiVo and Replay were going to keep PPV programs from being saved for more than x days (30?). I'll see if I can find the article...

Yep they can be taped. With directTivo you can even order a movie to be taped rather than watched right way. Pretty nifty.
