iRiver Offers Free TiVo with Purchase

By Nate Mook | Published September 23, 2005, 1:25 PM

The latest in a string of deals designed to bring more subscribers to TiVo's doorstep is targeting Portable Media Center buyers. iRiver is offering its $500 PMC-120 media player with a free 40-hour Series2 TiVo and 1 year of service pre-paid. The deal expires October 15.

The PMC-120 features a 3.5-inch color display and 20GB hard drive for playing back music, TV shows, movies, photos and more. TiVo users can take advantage of TiVo To Go to watch recordings on the run using the device. The offer could help iRiver get rid of some inventory as well, with Portable Media Center sales less than stellar due to high prices and short battery life.
