  1. 2026-09-07 / MARKETSTiVo Will Charge for Commercial Skipping on Recordings You Already Made, Testing a Paid Tier Behind a Free FeatureTiVo plans to end free automatic commercial skipping in November 2026 and is testing a paid premium replacement, taking a feature that shipped with the hardware and moving it behind a subscription. It is the inverse of the free-tier cannibalization pattern seen elsewhere this year: rather than AI making the free tier good enough, a hardware vendor is retracting a free capability to manufacture recurring revenue. The Hacker News reaction (114 points within hours) is the reminder that retraction is priced very differently by users than a new paid tier.
