Netflix streaming coming soon to TiVo
Just caught this news on Hacking Netflix blog. I'm thrilled as I was starting to get the itch to buy a Roku player. Only downside is it won't be available to TiVo Series 2 owners. Excerpt from the HN blog:
Netflix and TiVo will start testing the service with a few thousand customers, and most customers will have access to Netflix streaming by the holidays. Netflix streaming movies will be provided to TiVo subscribers at no cost (Netflix subscription required), but will be limited to TiVo Series 3, TiVo HD, and HD XL boxes.

Kumar recommends TiVo
I just saw the movie: Harold & Kumar Escape From Guantanamo Bay
The movie is pretty lame, and I'm not here to review it.
There was a mention of TiVo in a scene on the boat ride from Cuba to Miami, and Kumar says to the Cubans, "I'm telling you, Jorge, the first thing you have to do when you get to America, buy a device called TiVo, Okay? Freedom means nothing if you're a slave to regular programing. I promise you that."

TiVo ad in "The Wild"
This is a scene from the Disney movie "The Wild", where the animals just entered Times Square in New York City. At the top of the lighted ad signs is a bouncing TiVo mascot character ad. I wonder if TiVo had to pay for this ad placement in the movie?
