A Soccer Fan's Dream Come True: DirecTV and TiVo Announce Partnership
If you're like me and subscribe to DirecTV for its unsurpassed soccer options (Dish has dropped Gol TV and cable TV customer service is abysmal) you'll be heartened to learn that DirecTV and TiVo have renewed a once deteriorating relationship and will offer TiVo DVR's as an option again.
Ever since my TiVo died I've been forced to use the clunky, not particularly intuitive DirecTV DVR. Good to see a corporation essentially admit it needs to stick to doing what it does best and leave "other stuff" to a more experienced company in that area.
And yes, the Josh Wicks Q&A is coming. My attention has been diverted by the U.S. Open Cup final on FSC.



Cool, thanks for the tip..
Nick, which DirectTV package would you recommend for the soccer fan? I'm a bit baffled by the choices.
Nick replies: We have Total Choice ($50.99) with the Sports Pack ($12); FSC, Gol, all the regional sports networks - and then I add the MLS package for $79 a season.
