What the hell is a TiVo?
TiVo is a consumer device for the recording and playback of Video or TV programs.
 It is sometimes called a PVR or a TVR, or a PTR. If you haven't heard about this or the Replay device, go to Best Buy and ask them to hit you in the head with a tack
hammer and show you the TiVo's.
PVR – Personal Video Recorder
TVR – Television Recorder
PTR – Personal TV Recorder
Huh?
But what is it?
TiVo is a Power PC 403GCX fueled piece of hardware that runs at about 50Mhz and does MPEG encoding and decoding to hard drives at roughly 1Gb/hour of storage. Hey that sounds like a computer…
