In addition, TiVo now offers independent and international film titles from Internet movie service Jaman.com. Titles including Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room and Supersize Me are available to rent or purchase starting at $1.99, with several short and full-length films available to download for free.

The new content selections are available to users with broadband-connected TiVo Series2, Series3, HD and HD XL DVRs.

  HD soon? I mean it's great that these movies are available in standard def, but who cares any more? I want more content in HD.
  
  If Amazon could finally offer Unbox movies and TV shows in HD I might spend some money on the service.
