"TiVo, the service that brought time-shifted television viewing to the masses, is about to adopt time-shifted internet media to subscribers to their service. Yesterday, at CES, they announced that all their subscribers will soon be able to select Internet video podcasts for playback on their set-top boxes.\u00A0 This is a move that has been rumored to be in the works for some time now, but is finally being officially announced.\nThe new offering will be available under the \"Season Pass\" feature, and will apply the function to video content available through any RSS feed.\u00A0 The function will work in conjunction with the software that TiVo provides users for their PCs, though there will be a guide of selected content within the TV-based menu showcasing certain Internet programs.\nIf you're an existing TiVo subscriber, the feature and additional software download will be available for free.\u00A0 The software will be $24.99 for new subscribers.\nThis is clearly a good thing for online purveyors of video, and couldn't come at a better time for independent producers, who will be willing and available to fill the gaps of entertaining content brought about by the WGA strike.\n[via Podcasting News]"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
