TiVo announces deal with small cable provider

Cebridge_logo Well, it ain't Comcast, but at least it's something. That's the message I got from TiVo's latest press release announcing a partnership with Cebridge Communications. Cebridge is a small provider offering cable TV and internet to 300,000 homes in over 20 states, and they've partnered with TiVo to pitch standalone 80 hour TiVos to their customers.

This is a good sign for TiVo and hopefully one of many such deals in the future (I'm still waiting for my standalone HD TiVo that will work with Comcast). [thanks MegaZone!]

If they want to increase their revenue further why doesn't Tivo head north of the border to Canada. I recently called customer service and they indicated they (Tivo) did not intend to enter the Canadian market in the forseeable future even when folks like myself would gladly subscribe to their service...does ANYONE know why? Might this be related to the Canadian population offering a poor business case, the additional cost and complexity surrounding the engish/french language for the EPG?, retail logistic, transport complexities of a large surface area nation?

TIA...Jay
