About 11 years too late, TiVo

Posted on June 12, 2006 by Gene

I’ve complained in the past about how long it takes TiVo to get things done; we’ve been waiting years for a stand-alone HD TiVo that still hasn’t hit the stores, they still haven’t managed to get their TiVo-To-Go software out for the Mac (although they finally released an update to their regular software that is compatible with the current system — a year after the system was released).
Last night, I noticed that a new network logo had appeared on my TiVo, evidently downloaded to it over the weekend. When I record from certain channels, I now see the UPN logo. Just for those keeping track, UPN went on the air in January, 1995. That’s 11 years ago.
UPN is ceasing operations in September, and has been replaced with “The CW.”
We should see a CW logo on TiVo sometime around 2016.
