Comcast Corp. is working with TiVo Inc. on an advertising system that will insert new, updated commercials into already-recorded programs.
Comcast Chief Executive Roberts told cable executives late Monday that under such a system, programs that were recorded weeks ago on a TiVo digital video recorder would have their old commercials replaced with new ones.
