On June 28, Dir*cTV (http://www.directv.com/) plans to roll out Dir*cTV Titanium (http://titanium.directv.com/), a new high-end entertainment package for its customers (http://news.digitaltrends.com/article10729.html#).
Now, hold on! Before you click that link and go running off to see what your favaorite satellite television provider might be offering—and maybe whether it includes a new deal with TiVo?—we need to ask you to sit back, take a breath, and brace yourself. Just a little.
DirecTV Titanium will be a limited-enrollment satellite television package for the absolute high-end of the television-viewing public. And by "absolute high-end," we mean you're going to have to pass a credit (http://news.digitaltrends.com/article10729.html#) check to enroll. And maybe fork over some collateral or first-born progeny.
So what does DirecTV Titanium offer? To start with, you get as many as ten HD (http://news.digitaltrends.com/article10729.html#) DVR receivers—that may not be enough for every room in the house, but it should cover the living room, dining room, lounge or game room, den, kitchen, master suite, a guest room, the kid's room, the patio, and the garage. And you get 24/7 concierge service in case there are any difficulties.
And what can you watch on these receivers? Everything. Dir*cTV (http://news.digitaltrends.com/article10729.html#) is offering access to literally all the content they can get their hands on and bounce off their satellites. DirecTV titanium users will be able to access every channel, every movie, every sports special, ever HDTV channel, and every pay-per-view program. If DirecTV carries, Titanium subscribers can watch it. End of story.
Oh. Well, except the pricing part. DirecTV Titanium will cost $7,500 a year, up-front, no installments.
Whee!

Mili how much are going to charge to get this :D
