Metabyte Networks, MbTV (2002)
In the mid 1990’s, we invented the digital video recorder (DVR). We took off as Metabyte Networks in 2000 and licensed the technology to cable TV set-top-box makers. As a private label technology, we garnered a larger footprint of the US market than the branded TiVo service. Millions of subscribers from leading cable TV companies like Time Warner Cable, Cox and Rogers use MbTV to record and watch television. Metabyte Networks received $20 million in investments from Seagate, Thomson, Canal Plus Technologies, and Scientific Atlanta (now Cisco).
