TIVO on your PSP legally

[mckmas8808]

Your PSP just became that much cooler. TiVo today announced an extension to its TiVoToGo service that will let subscribers transfer programming to Sony's PSP handheld and Apple's iPod music player. Most subscribers of TiVo's digital recording service know that it's hard to plow through dozens of hours of recorded programming, and it looks as though TiVo has taken notice.

Programs transferred from a TiVo device to a portable player such as a PSP would wear a digital watermark to discourage piracy. Also, this ensures transferred programming can be traced back to its original source. And while the service is free for current subscribers, you'll need to pay a "small fee" for the program needed to make the transfer process work.

Beta testing kicks off this Monday, but it won't officially start until early next year. Time to go buy those beefy memory sticks, people.

Damn this is so cool. Another reason why the PSP is so revolutionary. So many different technical things in one unit is outstanding.

Well I have Echostar, so could I use it if I brought a TIVO 2 series box?
