A picture named tivo.apple.jpg Is TiVo Next For Apple?

Business 2.0 by John Battelle:

Everyone who has TiVo loves TiVo; it is to television what Macintosh was to computing -- a revelation. Which is exactly why Apple should buy TiVo and once again redefine the intersection of culture and technology.

Personally I think it is a perfect fit. TiVo has embraced Apple's Rendezvous networking technology which, together with TiVo's Home Media Option, allows you to stream music from iTunes and view photos from iPhoto.

I can even imagine an iPod-like device with a nice flat panel display that would synch up with my TiVo, allowing me to view my favorite programs on cross-country flights.

Let me know what you think about Apple buying TiVo.
