TiVo2Go vs. iTunes: Round One

by cryhavoc2112 January 4, 2006 7:21 AM PST

I am looking forward to this competition as the portable market continues to expand.
$.99 content is always a good price point...

Now, when will I be able to transfer BACK to my TiVo?

Not Tivo2Go
by wiley14 January 4, 2006 8:54 AM PST: This isn't a Tivo. DirecTV dropped Tivo in November. The new DVRs that use software from NDS (also owned by News Corp). I've had the new DVR since day three and while it's missing the suggestions functionality, it is much more intuitive, responsive, and usable than a Tivo.; Like this View reply Hide reply
