TIVO Deathwatch: A Survey Says the Sky is Blue

File under the surveying the obvious category.

A survey has determined that TIVO is losing its buzz. Ya think?

blue
Yup

Maybe the fact that

1) DirecTV has abandoned it,

2) the HDTV boxes we paid a grand a pop for are either dying of a bad hard drive or about to be obsolete since they don’t do MPEG-4, and

3) nobody who dumped cable for satellite TV is willing to run back to the oppressive cable company just in the hopes of using a TIVO until the cable company pulls a DirecTV and dumps TIVO in favor of its own recorder

has something to do with it.
