TiVo Launches Home Media Option

April 07, 2003

In January of this year Dallas-based market research and consulting firm Parks Associates conducted a survey of 10,800 Internet-enabled homes that traced a growing trend among U.S. households to network PCs with consumer electronics products such as televisions and stereos.

The study found that almost 61 percent of broadband homes with a PC co-located with their primary home entertainment system have a home network in place.
