The first direction is doing stand-alone business. TiVo can successfully compete with others in this type of business and earn high profits due to its unique offering. Standalone business also gives TiVo flexibility in developing its product technology and in enhancing its brand awareness, which allows TiVo to set higher prices. On the other hand, the company will have more marketing expenses in order to compete in the market since it needs to pay for advertising costs itself. Moreover, cable companies can become new potential competitors since they can outsource consumer electronics manufacturing to produce DVRs for them and distribute DVR devices to their subscribers. Doing Comcast and Advertising business may require TiVo to assemble its product equipment with another consumer electronics product and to use co-branding causing TiVo’s brand awareness to decrease.
