TiVo has announced that is launching a service to enable its television recording service users share recorded television programs in other rooms in their homes. TiVo's Home Media Option is now available to TiVo subscribers using TiVo's new Series2 digital video recorder (DVR), a set-top box with a built-in hard drive that lets users save up to 80 hours of programs at a time. The system also enables subscribers with high-speed Internet connections to remotely instruct their recorders to save a desired program via a Web page. The Home Media Option is available as a download to TiVo subscribers with Series2 DVRs for a one-time fee of $99 US. Activating the package on additional Series2 DVRs within a home is priced at a one-time fee of $49 per Series2 DVR unit. The purchase of a network adapter, priced at $40-$60 each US, is also necessary to provide networking capability.
