TiVo and Sonic Solutions’ Roxio division announced the availability of TiVoToGo for the Macintosh platform at the International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas Monday.
The digital-video-recorder vendor also demonstrated a Motorola DVR with its software along with Comcast at the CES.
By using Roxio's Toast 8 Titanium Mac disc-burning software, TiVo subscribers with broadband-connected TiVo Series2 DVRs will now be able to transfer their recorded shows to watch on their Macs, burn to DVDs or view on portable devices such as Apple Computer iPods or Sony PlayStation Portables.
In other TiVo news, the company announced that it formed joint alliances with Music Choice and RealNetworks to give its subscribers access to the digital-music services and a library of millions of songs and videos on their TV sets.
“Music is one of the most popular and sought-after content genres," TiVo CEO Tom Rogers said in a prepared statement. "By working with Music Choice and RealNetworks to create services that give TiVo subscribers the ability to select the music videos and songs they want, TiVo is laying the foundation to redefine the television-viewing experience and assuring that a vast new world of broadband-delivered content can be seen easily and conveniently on the TV.”
