TiVo Is Still Ahead on IPTV

Though few seem to acknowl­edge the strides that TiVo has been mak­ing in IPTV (as opposed to Apple), Engad­get is report­ing that you can now pur­chase Ama­zon Unbox con­tent straight from your TiVo. They call it Buy on TV (direct, if not entire­ly cre­ative). I doubt that it is a ‘cable tele­vi­sion replace­ment’ just yet, but it’s fur­ther move­ment in the right direc­tion for the indus­try. I think YouTube must be the next big step for them.

  1. I just received an e‑mail from TiVo that this ser­vice appar­ent­ly cov­ers their “rentals” as well. That is some­thing that the Apple iTMS does not have (yet).
