Tivo Hacking

2000-09-23 01:14:14+02 by TC 0 comments

OK so I follow this Tivo Link from Camworld and read this guys rant about what tivo should be and have to snicker a little. An anonymous consulting company has been talking to Tivo about some projects and they actually want to put network connectivety into the box because of a deal with Viacom(Blockbuster) to download movies on demand. There are a few snags in the plan (piracy, digital watermark & bandwidth) but it may eventually happen. I'd pay the stupid $5 to have the movie download to my home. Come to think of it. I'd pay the $30 if they would let me own it...
