TiVo, we hardly knew ye | |
|
||
| Time: 21:22 EST/02:22 GMT | News Source: MSNBC | Posted By: Adrian Latinak | ||
Sorry fans, but it’s destined for the ash heap of history. TiVo, the granddaddy of digital video recorders, or DVRs, enjoys a cult following noted for its evangelical fervor. There are few worse cocktail-party quandaries than being sandwiched between a TiVo owner and the wall. SHOULD YOU EVER find yourself in such a spot, prepare for a 45-minute sermon on the glories of pausing live TV, fast-forwarding through the ads, and watching King of the Hill reruns whenever you damn well please, without having to worry about setting a VCR timer. The devotee will even use TiVo as a verb, as in, “Why don’t you come over tomorrow night, ‘cause I just TiVo’d three episodes of Crank Yankers.” | ||
