What I want to know is what the hell happened to Netflix movie downloads? This bite-sized Internet content sounds somewhat interesting, but I'm willing to pay for full-length feature films... like yesterday!I went ahead and published TiVo's press release from the wire, since they haven't updated tivo.com yet:<a class="user" href="http://www.zatznotfunny.com/2006-05/tivo-partners-with-brightcove-to-deploy-internet-video/">http://www.zatznotfunny.com/2006-05/tivo-partners-with-brightcove-to-deploy-internet-video/</a>Once they update their site, I'll comment the direct link.
