As the number of series and TV shows we watch grows, so do the ways in which we do so. The good old days of sitting down in front of your TV to enjoy an episode Friends are steadily on their way out as we make room for the next upgrade in mobile technology – streaming recorded footage straight to your iOS device.

TiVo recently announced that they will launch ‘The Stream’ in coming months, a small external box which connects directly to a TiVo Premiere unit. Once connected, you’ll be able to stream recorded shows across your WiFi network to any of your iOS devices, at the same time.

[It] also lets you download and store programs so you can watch them later when you’re not at home. (What you can’t do is stream a show out of your home, across the Internet and onto a remote device.)

Although initially it’ll be available exclusively for use with iOS devices, like iPhones and iPads, there are whispers that apps may be developed to accommodate other platforms. To make use of the service you’ll have to have a TiVo Premiere unit and pay for the service.

Your move, DSTV.
