Online Movies Without a PC


From The New York Times - TiVo, the pioneer of digital video recorders, said yesterday that it had introduced a service to let customers buy movies and television shows from the Unbox service of Amazon.com without using a personal computer.

Owners of some TiVo digital video recorders that have high-speed Internet access may download Unbox movies directly to their televisions, the companies said yesterday.

Customers will be able to buy TV shows for $1.99 an episode and rent movies for $1.99 to $3.99.

The service, which started in March, previously required customers to download shows to their computers and either watch them there or transfer them to televisions.

It was available to more than 1.5 million TiVo customers. | Read full article
