Today, TiVo announced a new program that will allow current users to upgrade their current DVR set up to a new HD DVR set up. Many TiVo customers probably don’t have the income to purchase all this luxury equipment, such as HD DVR, and are often stuck using their regular DVR. Well, starting today TiVo more »

The Tivo HD takes most of the Series3 features but packs them in a lower priced model. The HD has the ability to record up to two HD programs while watching a third, via CableCards, cable, or over the air signals. It can record a maximum of 20 hours of HD or 180 hours of standard definition with the built in hard drive, though you can bump up the storage with additional/external hard drives. The HD also skips commercials :30 seconds at a time (an intuitive feature that other manufacturers should roll out). Unlike most other DVRs the TiVo connects to the internet via ethernet or WiFi (with an adapter) to access Amazon Unbox movies, TiVoCast videos, Rhapsody subscription music, online scheduling, photo and music streaming and firmware upgrades — with additions such as TiVo To Go and Multi-Room viewing.
