Definitely adds some value to the TiVo subscription.

Nice! Although it hurts my argument for getting an Xbox now.

I was going to buy an Xbox live gold account, but now I don't have to .

Lets just say this is fucking awesome! I have been hoping for this since Netflix started streaming video.

I hope the more they roll out these deals, the more leverage they'll have with studios or premium channels to provide access to their content. The Starz deal really improved things, but there are still a lot of missing movies for Watch-It-Now.

Oh heck yeh! Now I no longer need my HTPC now that my PS3 has Flash 9 support and soon my series 3 will have netflix.

Ooh, 1TB Tivo HD + Lifestime Subscription + Netflix...dang man...so tempting...

The *ONLY* thing keeping me on my Blockbuster online plan is the fact that I'm grandfathered in under an incredibly good deal.

- 4 out at a time
- Unlimited in store returns
- 2 free coupons a month including game rentals

$14.99 a month

I've been on this plan since they were taking beta users. Everyone else I know has been cut but my account has been safe so far. Once they gut my subscription I'm moving over to Netflix.

Blockbuster recently released a streaming service but you have to pay in addition to your monthly plan. Netflix going in for the kill on the Xbox and TiVo partnerships.

Netflix's business model of letting anyone use their streaming API to make it compatible with any hardware is paying dividends.
