TiVo working on AAC support for Home Media Option
May 28, 2003 - 13:42 PDT   TiVo is working on a new version of the Mac OS X software for its Home Media Option that will let users stream AAC music files to their TiVo Digital Video Recorder (DVR), in addition to the already supported MP3 format. "We are working with Apple on a solution to support the AAC file format while also honoring the rights of copyright holders," a TiVo spokesperson told MacMinute. Last month, the company launched the Home Media Option, which lets users automatically stream music and photos from their Mac (via iTunes and iPhoto) to a TiVo Series2 DVR for listening/viewing on a TV. However, Apple has since released iTunes 4, which brought support for AAC files -- now the preferred music format for many users. As we previously reported, TiVos are also now being sold in Apple retail stores nationwide.  [ Email this story ]
