End of an Era: Shanan Leaves TiVo (Soon)


TWTRCON, Jerad Hill Photographer

We don’t typically cover personnel moves, but we’re making an exception this week as I’m personally bummed that TiVo Inc. is letting Shanan get away. Most know her as the long-time “voice of TiVo” … but she’s served a far more important internal role as consumer advocate. As TiVo seems to focus more on corporate partnerships and patent lawsuits, while their direct subscriber count dwindles, I was disappointed to learn of her upcoming departure and wonder if TiVo can (or will) find a similar champion for we, the people. (I was a TiVo customer long before I was a TiVo blogger.) Specific to Shanan, our friendship transcended TiVo Inc. years ago. She knows I’ve got her back and wish her great success with the next thing(s).
