Slashdot is reporting on rumors that Apple may buy TiVo:
TiVo Inc. shares jumped more than 17 percent on Wednesday, fueled by speculation that Apple Computer Inc. might make a try to buy the digital video recorder maker, analysts said."What we hear on the street is that Apple is interested in their business and that they are a takeout target," said analyst Steven Kroll Jr. of Monness, Crespi, Hardt & Co.
Which would combine the two most successful "going out of business... real soon!" companies out there right now. We love our little gray box, so anything that promises to keep it going is fine by us.
sweet - now you'll get the iTivo. None of the cool features like being able to record programs but all the joy of paying twice as much. It's a win for everyone!
