TiVo最新研究显示，尽管经济压力，消费者的视频观看时间创四年来新高，家庭平均订阅超过10项服务，日均观看超过5小时。内容发现变得困难，观众需查看多个应用。广告支持的流媒体服务增长，用户在主屏幕的停留时间增加，显示其重要性。尽管流媒体兴起，观众仍重视简洁性和便捷性。

TiVo曾是电视行业的革命性产品，允许用户暂停和录制直播电视，改变了观众的观看习惯。然而，TiVo未能建立持久的商业模式，最终被市场淘汰。

TiVo曾在2000年代引领DVR技术，但因专注诉讼而错失智能电视市场。随着Netflix等流媒体的崛起，TiVo用户逐渐流失，最终被Rovi收购，后又被Xperi收购，退出硬件市场，转向智能电视操作系统。

TiVo将在美国推出智能电视平台TiVo OS，首款搭载该系统的Sharp电视预计于2月上市。TiVo OS支持多种流媒体服务，提供个性化推荐和语音控制功能。尽管面临激烈竞争，TiVo希望通过有竞争力的定价吸引消费者。
