Greenguy's Board - View Single Post - Rumors… TiVo to be bought by Apple computer?

I just reinstalled DirecTV two days ago because cable was charging twice as much for the same channels. Not even digital. I desperately wanted to get DirecTV's DVR, but it only works with a Tivo subscription and my wife has a serious dislike for Tivo- the company, not the service. She used to work for Tribune Media/TV Data and handled Tivo's listings account. Now I'm going to have to go and buy a stand alone DVR which won't give me half the features, but at least I won't have to mess with that antique VCR.
