Amazon & Tivo Take on Netflix

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the getting-closer dept.

RadioTV writes "Amazon is in Beta testing with select Tivo users to allow Unbox videos to be downloaded to Series 2 and 3 set-top boxes. The FAQ for the service is available." The price point for movies is fairly reasonable. No HD and won't work with DirecTV's obsoleted HD tivo, but this is a step in the right direction.

    Who knows what it means? It just says "Offtopic". You think you can make up your own definition, and expect others to just agree with you?

    You're as full of it as people who go on about how the first post shouldn't be modded "Redundant". There isn't an Official Moderator Dictionary.
