Nero and Tivo Bring Home Theater to Your PC

 

  A partnership between Nero and Tivo have brought us a new package deal of services called Liquid TV.  The offer is for $199 and you get a Hauppage ATSC USB tuner, a Tivo remote, branded with Nero along with the necessary IR receiver.  The package also includes 1 year of Tivo service and brings TV to your PC.  Along with using the remote you can also use your keyboard and mouse should you so choose.  You can also export recorded video to your PSP or iPod right from the interface.  There is no promise of cable card compatibility, but the whole package is not a bad deal if you don’t already have cable or satellite or just want to avoid monthly fees.

The bad news is that the DVR is not set to launch until the 2nd half of 2009.  

 

Thanks for listening DirecTV,  finally someone listens.
