Tivo just records such content for you, if you let it. Based on your choices. Presumably patented. |

This is where your TiVo service comes into its own. Your TiVo box remembers what you like and what you don't, so it can suggest new things you're more likely to love. You'll find two little symbols on your control – the unique 'Thumbs Up' and 'Thumbs Down' buttons. These let you rate what you watch instantly. So if you gave Megamind the 'Thumbs Up', it might suggest you catch other animated movies, like The Incredibles or Shrek 3. And in time, your TiVo box will learn exactly how to push your buttons. They'll be saved in a special Suggestions folder in My Shows or available On Demand, ready for you to watch when you want." http://store.virginmedia.com/discover/tv/tivo/explore/tivo-box.html |
