Personally I don't think so considering the Comcast contract.

DirecTV to stop marketing TiVo
Posted Aug 11, 2005, 10:31 AM ET by Todd Carter

It's not really news, but it does make it official: DirecTV will stop marketing TiVo's PVRs later this year, replacing them with NDS Group Plc technology, which is owned by DirecTV investor News Corp.

The word came Wednesday during Reuters Telecommunications, Cable and Satellite Summit in New York City. "The product we will market is our product," DirecTV Chief Executive Chase Carey said. However, he suggested that customers can still get TiVo if they ask.

The NDS PVRs have high-capacity hard drives that store frequently watched programs, creating an almost video-on-demand experience for users.
