Re: Tivo.. said by cghh:TiVo and NetFlix had a deal a few years ago, but it fell through. Word at the time was that that NetFlix was having trouble getting the appropriate licensing from the studios. Now they seem to have sorted that out, but TiVo has moved on to support Amazon Unbox. I've downloaded a few unbox movies, but rarely...why pay 4 bucks a pop, when I can get it free (sunk cost, already paying) on netflix in a day or two. |

| 'because you are tied into getting a $99 box just for netflix. at least with tivo, you get a top of the line dvr that does other things.
trust me: if Netflix teamed with Tivo, it would no longer be "free X hours /month". they are doing the free hours to get people to try and avoid the other systems emerging. |
