That means you can get a 40-hour DVR for $390 total. Not bad
considering how expensive these machines still are. Another $100 and I
think they'll start cutting into the mainstream some. If you've been
waiting, perhaps this is a more appealing price point for you?

12/19/2004 03:36 PMA Life Where TiVo Has Always Existed
"...My daughter was only 3 months old when it arrived and
we set it up. As far as my daughter knows, TiVo has always been
around. Now that she (and our TiVo) are three years old, and there are
some very interesting things I've been able to observe.
First - she doesn't watch much TV (an allotted hour per day), but
when she does watch it, she gets a choice of a recent episode of any
of her favorite pre-recorded shows (current favorites are Dora the
Explorer and Caillou), and she can watch it at any time of day. We get
to choose what shows we'd like to allow her to watch, set up a Season
Pass, and we're done.
Second - Commercials are an infrequent novelty to her. We always
fast-forward through commercials, or watch non-commercial shows. When
she does occasionally see a full commercial, she's fascinated, and
will often ask us to stop so she can see what's going on. How can we
demonstrate to her the evils of commercial interruption, when she has
never had to experience it?
Third - Ignorance of Schedules/Programming - she has no idea when
her favorite shows are on, never has. She gets quite confused when we
are watching a non-TiVo TV, and she asks to watch 'a kids show', and
we have to explain that this TV won't do what ours at home does. We've
sometimes shortened this explanation to 'This TV is broken', which she
seems to accept, and will wait until we get home to watch our 'fixed'
TV.
Fourth - pausing taken for granted. She is now the master of paused
TV - saying 'Can you please stop this for a minute - I have to use the
Potty'....
I compare all of these observations to my TV-watching experience as
a child - always excited about Saturday Morning, because that's when
cartoons were on - swapping stories about the latest Evel Knievel
motorcycle I saw on a commercial with the other kids, knowing they had
all seen the same commercials as well. Feeling disappointed when my
parents would switch off a show mid-way through because they decided
it wasn't appropriate. The pain of commercial interruption, the
disappointment of 'nothing's on', or the missed shows that were
probably gone for good. (On a side note, anyone else remember the days
where if you missed a movie in the theater, you'd never get a chance
to see it again?)
There are a lot of other home entertainment developments that have
changed since I was a kid, but none so radically as the TiVo
experience. I never cease to be amazed when I'm zooming past a
commercial with a woman dancing with a 'swiffer', and I hear my
daughters small voice say: 'Wait Papa, I wanna see that'." [Eintagsfliegen
]
Kids growing up like this view their entertainment and multimedia
very differently than the rest of us. Heck,
as an adult I'm completely spoiled by this revolution, and the desire
for this functionality spills over into other mediums (why can't I
press a button to go back 7 seconds and hear what I just missed on the
radio or pause it?).
It's an interactive world for them, and they shift everything.

TiVo, ReplayTV Make Their Devices Less
Useful
09/09/2004 02:40 PMTiVo and ReplayTV have both announced plans to
inco
rporate copy protection technology in their boxes that would let
content providers set content to "expire." The idea is to protect
movie makers who are afraid to release movies to PPV channels where
they could be recorded by users who then choose not to buy the DVD --
or at least that's the theory. However, as is pointed out in the
article, this is a "feature" that makes the device less useful to
people. They buy it in order to record stuff to watch it on
their schedule, not the broadcasters'. By limiting that, the
devices become less useful. Once again, instead of embracing what the
technology can do to get more people to watch their content, they're
taking a backwards step, making their content less useful. While TiVo
and Replay will claim they need to do this, that's not true. If
they're smart, others will come along, refusing to take away features
from customers.

09/09/2004 11:02 AMBased upon the story I have just read I will predict the demise of
these two companies within 2 years. It seems they have agreed to
implement changes that would embed code in their machines that would
limit the amount of time you can store a pay for view movie and limit
how often that movie can be watched.
All I can say is they are a bunch of idiots. [Sili

With ReplayTV out of the picture,
Studios turn on TiVo
07/23/2004 04:46 AMTiVo's strategy has always been to play nice with the movie studios.
While SonicBlue was shipping the Replay with automated commercial
skipping and show-sharing, TiVo was adding DRM-based systems for
cautiously moving programming around your house and only your house.
It worked -- sorta. Replay got sued into oblivion, and TiVo was left
standing.
But now that the studios have chased the TiVo competitors out of the
market, they're turning on their pet PVR. TiVo wants to deliver a
product that will allow you to share your programming among no more
than 10 sets -- this isn't the indiscriminate sharing that the
Broadcast Flag advocates said they feared: this is heaily DRMed,
controlled and modest sharing.
And the Studios and the NFL don't like it. So they're demanding that
FCC order TiVo to disable this feature.

ReplayTV To Honor Mislabeled Three Year
Service Contracts
ReplayTV To Honor Mislabeled Three Year
Service Contracts
01/07/2004 06:36 PMNo surprise here, but after the stink that was raised a few weeks back
about how
Repla
yTV sold a bunch of mislabeled boxes that claimed to include three
years of free service - the company has decided to
back
down and honor the service contract. Probably, someone took the
time to figure out that giving away three years of free service to a
fairly small number of customers was going to be cheaper than paying
the lawyers to defend the lawsuit that was surely coming. Of course,
it probably would have helped if they'd done that calculation (and
factored in the potential cost of the bad PR) before they played the
role of the Grinch and took back the "free service" many people
thought they were giving to friends and family for the holidays.

"Syndication is key. I have become such a snob that I

snob is a bit harsh. It is more about convenience. I don't have time
to search out every nifty blog I come across every day to see if there
is a new post. I want it delivered to me.
When I find a new blog I enjoy, the first thing I do is scour the
sidebars for a link to syndication. No syndication, no subscription.
The blogger loses out on higher readership & I lose out on reading
