TiVo, Netflix Teaming Up—11:01 AM

If you could somehow work Pixar and Skittles into this, it would just about be the best thing ever. In the meantime, while it certainly won't affect me for years to come, I'm delighted that a new deal between TiVo and Netflix has caused confidence in both companies to surge, even if only slightly.

Both have recently been facing a lot of speculation along the lines of "the first and best company to do something isn't always the one that's successful over the long term," with Blockbuster entering the Netflix domain (after the DVD market nearly ran it out of business) and pretty much everybody entering the TiVo market. I've been ever so delighted to see many, many hip-looking TiVo ads in magazines lately, touting such TiVo-only features as WishLists and Season Passes. I hope the world will understand that paying a tiny bit more for quality is worth it, but typically they don't. Anyway, my TiVo stock is up 16%!
