My Virginmedia insider tells me Sky will probably beat them to networking by at least 7 months(see what I did there?).
Sky already have an estimated 60% of Sky+HD boxes connected to the home network and rising weekly. Your TiVo may have a cable connection but it will still need connecting to your home network to stream between boxes. I understand VM are working on a way round this but its going to take time.
Sky will be streaming between boxes before the end of 2012, VM still need to rollout TiVo to ALL boxes before they can even think about streaming between a TiVo and a VHD unless you're going to have homes with 2 or 3 TiVo's?
Ok a little googling has got me this...
The DRX595 None recordable SkyHD box is "Multiroom streaming" ready, You'll be able to watch a TV channel whilst someone else is streaming from the same box. It has had Alpha testing(closed) it will Beta in Summer 2012. No hard facts or official comments from Sky apart from the original announcement of Multiroom streaming when the DRX595 was launched.
