Indeed, TiVo does have their free TiVo Desktop software. I run it myself, and it's fantastic. Problem is, it isn't parked on the side of my screen where I can easily see what's been recorded. That's why I wrote the gadget. Also, TiVoToGo has been replaced by TiVo Desktop Plus, and it costs $24.95 (I know, because I bought it). :-)

This is just another option, frankly. It's not meant to replace TiVo's software.
