In a move that you might’ve expected already happened years ago, TiVo has officially killed off its DVR recording boxes.
The company is no longer selling the boxes that revolutionized the way folks watched TV. Remember the neighborhood family that first got a TiVo? It was like magic. Now, well, it’s the era of streaming. And recording a live show — if you need to do it at all — does not require a different set-top box.
The disappearance of the TiVo DVR was first reported by Cord Cutter News. The news has since been confirmed by the company.
“I can confirm that as of October 1, 2025, TiVo stopped selling physical DVR products, including hardware and accessories, both online and through agents,” spokeswoman Caroline Anson told PC Mag. “TiVo no longer manufactures hardware, and our remaining inventory is now depleted, though we will continue to offer support for the products going forward.”
(Disclosure: PC Mag is owned by Ziff Davis, which also owns Mashable.)
TiVo has pivoted to being a software company, creating an operating system mostly used by TVs sold in Europe.
