TiVo Inc., seeking to prevent consumers from choosing rival digital-video recorders, slashed the price of its machines by as much as half. Customers who sign up for a one-year subscription will get a $150 mail-in rebate, bringing the price of TiVo's most basic box to $49.99 from a previously discounted $99, the Alviso, Calif., company said Tuesday in a statement. The promotion will end Nov. 27.
Digital video recorders like TiVo long ago freed us from the tyranny of network schedules. The newest DVRs provide liberation from the need to coordinate our viewing with the rest of the household. Now we can all sit in different rooms watching different shows! (Is that good for familial relations? I suppose that depends on your family.)

Americans each year buy a mountain of computers, big-screen TVs, cell phones and digital video recorders, a spending spree only slightly slowed by the recession. Most of the purchases replace older electronics. But what happens to the stuff we don't want anymore?
The rollout of digital video recorders by cable providers such as Cablevision is expected to be a catalyst for adoption of the TiVo- like devices, a study says. The Yankee Group forecasts that 33.5 million homes will have digital video recorders by the end of 2008, up from 7 million at the end of 2004.
