Well, the good people over at TiVo intends to roll back those years with the TiVo BOLT, where they claim for it to be “the most advanced television-viewing experience available.” We shall see about that.
The TiVo BOLT would let viewers to skip entire commercial breaks at one go, using but a single press of a button. This is made possible thanks to the new SkipMode feature from TiVo that helps to distinguish the TiVo BOLT from other models in the market. It happens to be the source of any available program from cable, video on demand, OTA, and OTT, and at the same time does so without requiring you to waste your time with pesky commercials.
The TiVo BOLT will also carry on TiVo’s renowned universal search and consumption feature across all your channels and streaming providers, and it delivers 30% faster viewing of recorded shows thanks to a combination of SkipMode with the new QuickMode.
