TiVo (and the Pony Express)

Interesting article looking at the oral history of TiVo.

10-years ago I wrote about the similarities between TiVo and the Pony Express. I closed that post with, "I can see the name TiVo remaining in the consciousness of the American public just as people remember the Pony Express."

To be fair to TiVo - their hardware has lasted longer than the year and a half the Pony Express was in operation but perhaps the biggest difference between the two was the owners of the Pony Express were't able to patent and license the horse.
