Series 2DT

Canadians can now time shift their TV viewing via Tivo. Canadian TiVo launches with one unit, the Series 2DT, which brings dual tuners to allow watching one show and record another, or record two at a time. Up to 80 hours of video can be saved on the hard drive.

Implications - The consumer desire for customization and convenience has officially expanded beyond interior or fashion design, entering the realm of entertainment and technology with PVR and Tivo. Tivo allows consumers to record, pause and play back television shows. The creation of such devices springs from an attempt to keep television relevant in a world almost dominated by online streaming.
