TiVo is dying

TiVo is dying, losing to the cable customers and the satellite providers (DirecTV is now pushing their in-house developed DVR). They need $$$$. First they started injecting ads when users fast-forwarded. You don't think they got paid big bucks to do that ?? Now they implementing DRM. I'm sure a nice check came with that too.

 Actually no, I don't think TiVo got paid "big bucks" to inject ads. Because I've yet to see a SINGLE IMPLIMENTAION of these ads. TiVo's TRYING to sell these ads. They ain't doing a great job.

Have you used a TiVo? You'd notice the fear of these ads much outweigh the actual occurrance.
