The AT&T Uverse Special Came, the Tivo Went…
Not AT&T.An AT&T representative told me that U-verse clients get Total Home DVR at no extra charge so why would they want TiVo? Okay, she did not rather speak it that way but she confirmed U-verse’s neat multi-room system, which incorporates a DVR that can be reached by several TVs in other rooms which TiVo also has the same feature.
TiVo lovers can also use their TiVos with U-verse although as lame recorders. Position the TV channel to the movie you want to record and hit record on the TiVo.”Consumers have to make sure their receiver is placed to the show they want to record at the time they want to record their show. Since our service is tunerless and uses switched video, the consumer will need to go through this procedure manually to schedule recordings,” stated the AT&T representative.I checked with TiVo and the company guided me to the Telecommunications Act of 1996, Section 629, and which guarantees that two-way communication is available for users.
Nevertheless, AT&T Deals state that it is not a cable operator so it isn’t a matter to that condition. The FCC currently is examining this issue, according to TiVo. In fact, it’s a important topic for the AT&T, which in Connecticut was observed by one faction as a cable company, but not by another.
