Tivo Testing Internet Download Service

knarfling writes "Yahoo News writes that customers will soon be able to download TV shows to their set-top boxes via the Internet. There is even speculation about being able to download an entire season at a time. Right now there are only three shows from the Independent Film Channel available on Aug 19, but it is a start. Will other companies follow this lead, or will this die down after the hype is over?"

tivo's not the first... nor is it necessary.

with xbox media center on your modded xbox, install this script ooba and then you get access to Comedy Central. Some other media (from the readme) you get access to is:

BBC streams, Comics (comics.com and ctrl+alt+del), , TVTome episode guides, Adult media (movies and images from 5 porn sites), Danish radio and TV (DR news, DR boogie, DR radio), RAI Click TV (italian TV streams), SVT TV open archive (Swedish), YLE24 Mediasaali (Finnish radio and TV), XBMC Forums reader (simple reader), History Channel, Movies @ archive.org (lots of movies in high quality), Online music labels (monotonik/mono211), Dave's trailer page

also google video gives you access to some fox newscasts.

my point is that you don't tivo for this.

ps: because of my xbox, i basically have The Daily Show with Jon Stewart tivo'd through the internet
