TiVo Seems Ready for IPTV And The Cloud
Great news from the TiVo camp on their partnership with Entone. "The agreement appears to represent TiVo’s first that will factor in
potential cloud DVR services. Last week, TiVo CEO Tom Rogers said his
company doesn’t care whether DVR storage is based in the cloud or in the
home, but still believes that local storage still hold some advantages." It also clearly shows that TiVo is following the trend toward more IP based and OTT content opportunities. There is clearly more push toward IP based distribution and this partnership will foreshadow the direction the cable companies need to proceed.
