The new service will be offered to all Series3, TiVo HD, or TiVo HD XL customers with a broadband connection. As for pricing, new HD movies will cost $3.99 - $4.99 to rent, while older titles will be priced at $2.99.
This would make for one of the easiest HD video services available so far. Television episodes are also available through the service, and can be purchased for $2.99.
"Consumers are seeking affordable entertainment alternatives to an expensive trip to the movies. With HD downloads for movies and TV shows, TiVo and Amazon can transform any night into a memorable movie experience, all for a fraction of the cost of the theater," Tara Maitra, general manager and vice president of content services and advertising sales at TiVo Inc, said.
