Rupert Murdoch Walked Away From TiVo Buyout Last Year
One of the interesting things to come out of D6 is the new that Rupert Murdoch was in negotiations to buy TiVo last year, but walked away due to the price being too high. The news was casually dropped by Murdoch during his interview at the conference. Give the deals TiVo has announced over the past year, Murdoch may well be regretting the decision to walk away. This may not be as interesting as the news that TiVo is developing a 'whole-home' DVR, but I thought it was an interesting tidbit, things that might have been.
