TIVO digital recorders

TIVO digital recorders

TIVO inc. announced on Tuesday November 14th, 2006 that it would offer it's users the ability to download content from the Internet and play it on their TV sets through their TIVO.

 The company’s expanded broadband strategy includes a unified search function that will allow video recording viewers to search across broadcast, cable, and broadband content sources and record any or all of them.

 This sounds cool, but I am not too sure how this is going to work.   And to do searches with a remote control is going to be difficult at best.

 Anyway, TIVO expects to implement its new service by the end of the year 2006.

 In 2005 TIVO came out with a new feature that allowed all TIVO recordings from TV to be transferred to your PC.  This seems to be a popular feature that TIVO customers liked so they are trying to expand on this.
