TiVo announced this past Tuesday that they access to Blockbuster’s long awaited OnDemand rental service. In a last ditch effort for Blockbuster to stay in business as well as remain competitive with Netflix. TiVo subscribers can buy classic movies for $2.99 and $3.99 for new releases. Blockbuster will add more films over the coming weeks including some select HD titles.
If you’re like me and don’t have a TiVo, Blockbuster will begin selling TiVos in the majority of Blockbuster stores around the US. Blockbuster is still two steps behind Netflix, which is already streaming videos to TiVo DVRs for no additional fee to users (aside from the monthly Netflix subscription fee). Amazon as well as Youtube also provide streaming options to TiVos.
