It would be a very sad day if DirecTV stopped supporting my DirecTivo device. Yes, I could get a stand alone Tivo unit but a single tuner just won’t cut it when I want to record “Worlds Wildest Police Chases” and Kim wants to watch “ER”. Once you live with dual tuners you can never go back
The Comcast DVR has dual tuners but the UI looks like it was created back in 1985, and it’s not nearly as smart (No Season Pass, no commercial skip) and as easy to use. People that like the Comcast DVR have never used Tivo before, I’m convinced.
Well, good news from the DirecTivo camp as DirecTV has announced they will continue to support the DirecTivo by extending their relationship with Tivo for another three years. This is welcome news!
NERD ALERT: But as much as I love my Tivo, I’m not even in the same league as Matt Ward, Tivo’s first Tivo Ambassador.
