TiVo adds movie tickets, photos to offerings

Posted on Thursday, December 1, 2005 by MegaZone

TiVo hopes to raise the stakes today in its battle with cable and satellite digital video recorders (DVRs) by introducing a suite of broadband-related services that enable many subscribers to use their TVs to buy movie tickets, share photos, check local weather and traffic, listen to radio podcasts and play games.

TiVo is getting some press today. That USA Today article has some more info on the new HME features, I like the plans to add movie trailers to the Fandango feature. There are also articles in Reuters and CNet.
