No.
There are some hacks for extracting video (a banned topic here) on the S1 units, but the S2 units are harder. But you will have to go elsewhere to look for info.

2) Can the Series 1 grab the program data from the Series 2 after the lifetime membership has been switched?
This would basically be stealing service for your other unit. TiVo offers data for $13 a month. Service theft is a banned topic here.

3) My cable company (TimeWarner) now offers an HDTV cable receiver, any news on when the Series 2 will be able to support HDTV?
To support the IR codes to run the cable box so you can record the NTSC (S-Video presumably) output of the cable box - bug TiVo. To record HDTV (ATSC) signals - never, the hardware in the S2 doesn't support ATSC.

In an ideal world, I would have my Series 1 and 2 be able to share media and the series 1 would be able to grab the progam data from the series 2. Just seeing if this is now possible.
Think about buying another S2 unit and signing up for MHO.
