TiVo Roamio. The best DVR ever.

The smaller, faster and more versatile TiVo Roamio is the best DVR ever. Not only does it record four shows at once and up to 500 SD / 75 HD hours of programming, Roamio also seamlessly integrates access to streaming services like Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu Plus, VUDU and much more.(1)

TiVo Roamio works with digital cable, Verizon FiOS or HD antenna, but does not support satellite or AT&T U-verse. Requires TiVo service (1 yr commitment).

The ultimate DVR and streaming player in one.

You no longer need multiple devices and remotes to access all the great content streaming on the web. TiVo Roamio serves up cable or over-the-air TV, available on-demand libraries and apps like Netflix—all from a single menu, and all searchable with a single click.(1) There's no better way to find and enjoy all your entertainment without having to switch inputs, devices or remotes.

Enjoy TiVo in every room.

Only TiVo's Tru Multi Room lets you add service to additional TVs in your home for one low monthly service price. Add a TiVo Mini to every TV and you've got a truly economical and powerful multi-room experience on every TV. Start a show in the family room and finish it in the bedroom. Watch your cooking shows in the kitchen or stream a movie in the playroom.

Watch live or recorded shows anywhere you go. Seriously.

By adding the TiVo Stream accessory, TiVo Roamio lets you stream live or recorded shows and sporting events from virtually anywhere on your iOS or Android mobile device. You can even download recordings onto an iPad or iPhone to enjoy when you're on a plane, in the car or wherever you're offline. Watching shows around the house is easy, too; TiVo Roamio streams live or recorded shows on up to four devices within your home network. (TiVo Stream sold separately.)

Total control at your fingertips.

The free TiVo app turns your tablet or smartphone into command central for your DVR. Search, browse, schedule and manage recordings remotely, or at home without interrupting what you're watching. The TiVo app also lets you tap into your Roamio from anywhere and stream live or recorded shows to your mobile device.

Other Options Provide Better Service, Convenience, Higher Resolution and More Flexible Viewing Options for Less
In their futile attempt to remain relevant, Tivo at first told me and many others that we could not transfer our lifetime account to a new Bolt (they later offered a short transfer window due to the subsequent collective outrage from Lifetime users). They have also continually made it technically challenging to verify a Tivo account when reseting an existing device associated with a Lifetime membership. After spending the afternoon trying to overcome an S308 error, I am saying farewell to any Tivo Device "Office Space style" (see photos).
