Discounted Tivo Subscriptions Available to Interested Students.

Washington State University (WSU) housing and on campus residents will now be offered TiVo digital video recorder services. This offer has been in the pipeline for a while.

According to Bob Tattershall, director of Housing and Dining Services, they have been wanting to offer this option for some time. This offer is to fill the gap in WSU which does not have a TV Guide type channel.

TiVo has proved popular since its inception. WIth TiVo, users can record their favorite shows. In addition live shows can be paused, replayed and slow motion is allowed s well. Also users can download movies and TV show episodes.

Students can sign up for this service with billing done between the student and company. The cost is $125 per year. Included in this cost is an 80 hr Series2 Dual Tuner DVR.

All the standard features that are offered to current TiVo customers will be offered to the students. The only difference is the discounted price.

This innovation is likely to be well accepted by the student community at WSU. It will allow students to work hard and at the same time keep in touch with their favorite TV shows. Many students are reported to be looking forward to the service.
