TiVo’s booked the The Museum of Television & Radio to unveil a new initiative of important developments with some special guests tomorrow. In light of TiVo’s upcoming presentation schedule emphasizing VOD, I’m guessing we’ll see some sort of new content download service and partners formally introduced. Given TiVo’s past video trials with IFC and yesterday’s Comcast/IFC announcement to simultaneously release new films in theaters and OnDemand, it’s not much of a stretch to see a similar arrangement presented.
Thomas Hawk says:

We already know what the announcement will be:
It’s their new KidZone service. We just got word from someone inside TiVo:
Here you go
I hope you’re wrong, because that is LAME. Then again maybe it’ll move boxes and maybe I’d feel different as a parent. Even if it is KidZone content downloads, I’m not interested in children’s programming.
It’s DRM for kids. LOL
