TiVo Stream Delivers Recorded Shows to Your iPhoneDespite the DVR market being usurped by cable companies, TiVo has managed to keep going and trying to bring new ideas to market. Today they announced TiVo Stream, which will allow owners of TiVo Premiere boxes ($150-250, $15/month) and an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to stream video or transfer it directly to their device:

TiVo Stream seamlessly delivers the content available on a consumer's TiVo Premiere or Premiere Q DVR to alternative screens such as iPads and iPhones. Unlike similar offerings in the market, this is the first product to enable streaming or download of shows simultaneously to multiple portable devices without interrupting what's playing on the television. The power of TiVo Stream enables users to quickly transfer shows to their mobile device for viewing outside the home.

This is a pretty cool upgrade for iOS and TiVo users if it works as well as described.
