TiVo To Deliver Broadband Video Content

TiVo has announced recently that it has signed Music Choice, America's largest music-related content deliverer.

Through the TiVoCast service, Music Choice is to deliver its catalogue of music videos and programming via broadband to TV. From later this year, TiVo subscribers who have a TiVo Series2 box and broadband Internet will be able to use the service. Tara Maitra, vice president of content services for TiVo, said: "Now TiVo subscribers will be able to get the music videos they want on their TV, not just what a music video channel happens to program.

"Music Choice has the best and widest catalog of music videos along with an extensive collection of original programming, and we expect this service to be extremely popular among the TiVo audience." Recently TiVo allied with digital media company RealNetworks to integrate the Rhapsody digital music service, which gives TiVo subscribers access to over three million songs on demand.

"This cooperation is just another example of how broadband and digital services like music and IPTV are gaining traction with mainstream media and consumers", states Mark Weibel EVP of Marketing for Broadband National, the industries leading comparative shopping website.
