TiVo is Pitching its Roamio OTA to Former Aereo Subscribers

After investing $1 million to acquire Aereo’s customer lists and trademarks, TiVo has begun pitching former subscribers of the defunct streaming service. TiVo is marketing its Roamio over-the-air DVR (via email bearing Aereo’s logo) as a service “conceived, developed and introduced for people just like you.” The current offer is $19.99 per month with a two-year commitment — $5 more per month than TiVo’s usual offer (and $12 more than the original Aereo service), but the hardware is being offered for free. “The devices together allow customers to record live antenna TV and watch on multiple devices — that is, if you already own an antenna,” notes The Wall Street Journal.
