New DirecTV Ownership Encourages TiVo
Monday, June 4th, 2007 at 4:00 PM - by John Martellaro
The new owners of DirecTV dont have the same DVR axe to grind as the current owner, the News Corp, and thats encouraging news for TiVo, according to Reuters on Monday.
Liberty Media is taking ownership of DirectTV from The News Corp. When the News Corp acquired DirecTV, competing interests caused them to go their own way with a DVR of their own design, and that has created growing pains for DirecTV and its customers, to say the least.
"Liberty is a company that has no ownership interests, now or after the DirecTV closes, in a competing DVR, and that probably changes things," said TiVos CEO Tom Rogers.
"I look at that as a positive in terms of a change of ownership though that deal hasnt closed yet," Mr. Rogers added.
TiVo recently started working more closely with Comcast as well, and as TiVos relationship with these carriers improves, so will go TiVos fortunes and, likely, an improved customer experience.
