TiVo Roamio OTA goes after cable cutters with more storage, no service fee - CNET

TiVo has a new option for those looking to ditch their cable providers once and for all.

The DVR maker has aounced the TiVo Roamio OTA with 1TB of storage for over-the-air programming. It can record up to four shows simultaneously from local networks available with a high-definition antea. The capacity allows for up to 150 hours of HD programs to be stored.

To further appeal to cord cutters, the Roamio OTA 1TB will not have a requirement for a monthly subscription fee. Instead it will be available starting May 2 for a one-time price of $399.99.

As with its other DVRs, the new model will have access to over-the-top (OTT) services as well including Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime Instant Video and YouTube. It will also have the company's newest viewing options such as SkipMode that allows you to skip commercial breaks with a single button press.
