TiVo Premiere in Entertainment Weekly

Not sure if anyone read the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly (Issue 31094 March 19th, 2010) but in there they posted a glimpse of the TiVo Premiere. In the rant about it being the "Lexus of DVRs" they say "Type in The Office, for example, and you'll find not just the NBC showing of the series, but wherever else it's available-inclduing past seasons for streaming from Netflix or last week's episode from Hulu." Now 99.9% of me is sure this is a typo or misunderstood, but .1% of my hopes that this is true and it's a very welcomed surprise for early adopters of the unit.

I think even .1% may be a bit optimistic. If the Premiere was going to have Hulu on it,they would have been hyping that feature out the wazoo!

Agreed. Hulu was not on the list partners during their big March 2 launch event like Netflix and Amazon.

I suspect Hulu might be more and more useless as time goes on. Some shows are pulling their stuff from Hulu so you watch it on their site.

Please, if Moxi supports and provides Hulu, go get one and enjoy it. Join a Moxi forum and then spend all your time there telling Moxi users what TiVo can and can't do. I'm sure they'll enjoy your company.

I read this article in EW too and was pleasantly surprised to see it mentioned in a positive context. Reading this forum, you'd think that since it doesn't have 3 tuners and DNLA it should just be sent right to the scrapheap...

Hulu was obviously a mistake. They likely meant Amazon.

I quite enjoy seeing people talk about what the competition can do, and I think Tivo does need the feature in question. It's not like he came on here to post "moxi is the bestest!$@#".
