In this video I show you what I consider the best streaming/recording device for cord cutters. I've had a TiVO for about 14 years now and it was great then and even better now with the integration of streaming services into their unified interface. I have 3 Chromecasts and a Roku, and TiVO is by far the superior experience. I don't even have my Roku connected anymore.

I have included links below to the various TiVO products and accessories discussed in this video along with any pertinent notes. The prices and information reflect what I am seeing on Amazon at this time but could change so please visit them for the final word. My goal was to organize things here in a way that would allow you to quickly compare apples-to-apples.

Notes: This represents TiVO's latest and greatest TiVO to date with the addition of 4K support. The hard drive capacity seems limited however (although there is a 1TB option), so if you don't have a burning need for 4K content at the moment, I would wait and see what TiVO releases down the road. It might be a moot point however, because 4K content is not a prevalent broadcast format so the only reason why this unit would make sense to you is if you are streaming 4K (from Netflix or Amazon Prime) and in that case it wouldn't take up any hard drive space anyway.

TiVO Accessories
================

TiVO Mini

[ Ссылка ]

+ Price: $113
+ Monthly Subscription Cost: None.
+ Maximum Supported Resolution: 1080p

Notes: Allows you to watch live TV, streaming services and your main TiVO's stored content on another TV. If you have more than one TV in your home you will want to pick one of these up for each additional TV. TV1 = Regular TiVO, TV2 = TiVO Mini, TV3 = TiVO Mini, etc.

MoCA Bridge
-----------
[ Ссылка ]

Notes: Only needed if you do not have a physical Ethernet Network between all your TiVOs and TiVO Minis AND your TiVO does not come with a MoCA Bridge Built-In. This will allow your TiVOs to use your existing coaxial cables to share video content across TiVO devices.
