Amazon Unbox Directly on TiVo
Posted by Suhit Gupta in "NEWS" @ 06:00 AM
"This is good news, you can now access Amazon Unbox directly from your couch and buy/rent movies using your TiVo remote. You have to set a PIN here, and enter that PIN whenever you purchase anything. Of course, you will have to wait anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour before your entire movie gets downloaded, but it sure beats running to a computer anytime you're thinking of wanting to download something to your TV. Not even the AppleTV allows for direct purchases and downloads from the couch."
This was bound to happen sooner or later. Though I honestly thought that Netflix would get there first. I like this feature, and right now it even seems affordable with a number of things available for free. I just hope it is not going to cost an arm and a leg. Having a 99c option like in iTunes would be perfect, IMHO.
