Upgrade your Comcast Moto 6412 DVR to TiVo Software!
CEO Tom Rogers sat down for a video interview with Reuters today. The big news is the TiVo-powered Comcast boxes are on target for late this year… and it sounds like our existing boxes will be upgraded over the network via a software “burst.”
Here are a few highlights…
* “Having a DVR is not having a TiVo.”
* Several new value-added features will be unveiled in the next 3-4 months to further distinguish TiVo from a generic DVR.
* DirecTV may be responsible for about 2/3 of TiVo subscribers, but 85% of their revenue comes from other sources.
* TiVo-enabled Comcast service is expected late this year.
* Existing Comcast boxes can be upgraded via a software “burst.”
* TiVo is in discussions with other cable operators.
