More TiVoToGo News!

Engadget has the latest scoop on TiVoToGo. Apparently they went to the DigitalLife expo and got to see TiVoToGo in action. The article seems to indicate that TiVoToGo will be free. Is this truly the case? I thought at one point you were going to have to pay for some software.

</p> <p>Also, I’m a little concerned by the following statement:</p> <blockquote><p>…any time a television network asks TiVo to disallow this feature, or if they enable any kind of copy-protection on their broadcasts (like, by implementing Macrovision) TiVo is going to readily oblige the request.</p></blockquote> <p>If this is truly the case then what good is TiVoToGo going to be? As Engadget indicates how many stations are going to allow themselves to be recorded?</p> <div class="navigation"> <div class="alignleft">« <a href="http://www.tivoblog.com/archives/2004/10/14/tivos-plan-for-80211g-tivotogo/">TiVo’s Plan For 802.11g & TiVoToGo</a></div> <div class="alignright"> <a href="http://www.tivoblog.com/archives/2004/10/18/interview-with-tivo-ceo-mike-ramsay/">Interview With TiVo CEO Mike Ramsay</a> »</div> <br class="clearing" /> </div> </div> <script type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script> </div> <p class="postmetadata alt"> <small> This entry was posted on Friday, October 15th, 2004 at 1:39 pm and is filed under <a href="http://www.tivoblog.com/archives/category/tivo-news/" title="View all posts in TiVo News" rel="category tag">TiVo News</a>, <a href="http://www.tivoblog.com/archives/category/tivo-software/tivotogo/" title="View all posts in TiVoToGo" rel="category tag">TiVoToGo</a>.
