MEDIA CENTER PC NEWSJanuary 10th 2007 TiVo And Roxio Bring TiVoToGo To The Mac Platform
Through Toast® 8 Titanium, Roxio’s industry-leading Mac disc burning software, TiVo subscribers with broadband connected TiVo® Series2™ DVRs will now be able to transfer their recorded shows to watch on their Mac, burn to a DVD, and enjoy on portable devices such as iPod® or PSP™. "The demand for TiVoToGo continues to grow rapidly, especially as the use of mobile devices for viewing video becomes more pervasive. Now, through our joint alliance with Roxio, we are able to answer that strong demand by delivering TiVoToGo to the Mac platform," said TiVo’s vice president of product marketing, Jim Denney. "By extending this capability to the passionate Mac community, TiVo continues to support our idea that "It’s not TiVo, unless it’s a TiVo."’ "We are proud to be the exclusive provider of TiVoToGo on the Mac, which continues our rich history of enabling ’firsts’ and ’onlys’ for the Mac platform," said Adam Fingerman, director of product management, Roxio. "Toast pioneered disc burning on the Mac, and TiVo revolutionized the way people watch TV, so we are thrilled to combine these strengths to provide new entertainment options for the Mac community." The TiVo service with the exclusive TiVoToGo feature provides subscribers with the easiest way to place-shift their favorite television programs from their TiVo box to their computer so that they can watch what they want to watch, when they want to watch it, and wherever they go. Roxio is the official provider of TiVoToGo for the Mac through Toast 8 Titanium, the standard for Mac disc burning. Toast 8 makes it easy to transfer shows from your TiVo DVR to your Mac, either one episode at a time or automatically as soon as the TiVo DVR has recorded them. Extending the TiVoToGo experience further, Toast 8 allows users to view shows on the Mac in windowed or full-screen mode, archive their programs to CD, DVD or Blu-ray Disc, burn programs to standard DVD, or enjoy on an iPod or PSP or other mobile devices.
