TiVo's New Roamio for Cord Cutters Cuts the Subscription Fee

TiVo on Wednesday announced a new version of its Roamio OTA digital
video recorder aimed at the growing market of cable cord cutters, with a
box that includes a hefty 1 TB of storage space and no monthly
subscription fee. The DVR can record up to 150 hours of high-definition
programming and up to four television shows at the same time, the
company said.

Getty Images Takes Google Grievances to EU

Getty Images on Wednesday filed a competition law complaint against
Google with the European Commission. The company last year filed an
"interested third party" submission in support of the EC's investigation
into Google's anticompetitive business practices. Getty's complaint, in
essence, is that Google Images facilitates piracy of high-res
copyrighted content.

pitches to pay the bills are searching frantically for ways to counter
the pesky programs. BlockIQ offers them one. BlockIQ, owned by AdSupply,
which recently merged with Adaptive Medias, has launched BlockBypass.

magnetic frame, features a built-in speaker and microphone that can be
used to listen to Internet radio or as a hands-free speakerphone, but
its main function is to act as a digital assistant.
