The current 320GB model will be replaced with a 500GB HDD model, which the company says will be good to store up to 75 hours of HD content.
Along with the storage add comes a price hike, however. The set-top will cost $150, which is compared to the current $100 price tag. The monthly service fee for the box will drop to just $15 per month with a one-year contract, making the box's price hike more easy to swallow.
If you need multiple boxes for the home, that price will drop to $12.99 per box.
Additonally, the other models in the lineup will see price hikes, as well:
- TiVo Premiere XL $249.99: Records two shows at once and up to 150 hours of HD content
- TiVo Premiere Elite $399.99: Records four shows at once and up to 300 hours of HD content
Just like before, to buy any of the boxes with a lifetime of service and support, that price is $500.
