TiVo sells out, big-time

By March, TiVo viewers will see "billboards," or small logos, popping up over TV commercials as they fast-forward through them, offering contest entries, giveaways or links to other ads. If a viewer "opts in" to the ad, their contact information will be downloaded to that advertiser — exclusively and by permission only — so even more direct marketing can take place.

Yeah, I bet their users were clamoring for this "feature." Time to snap up any Replay 50xx-series PVR you can find.
