I got a Tivo for Christmas! Yeah! This time around I am noticing all of the nice new features like being able to download shows to computers on your home network and setup recordings from online.
I am hoping there is some way I can give it an RSS feed that it will pull in video podcasts from my subscription channel list. Maybe there is a plugin for Miro that will allow Miro to play shows recorded by my Tivo. I'll keep everyone posted with what I learn that I can do with it. The big bummer is that I have to pay 9.95 - 12.95 a month to subscribe to their service or else the box is simply a large paperweight. C'mon I am paying for them to make money off of my data. I don't think that is fair. The lease they could do is make the box and service free and pay for it by selling targeted ad time to advertising firms.
It should also be interesting to see how my wife and I share the 80hrs worth of storage is on the system. Its now down to the Discovery channel vs. the E Channel... game on
