    NEW YORK (Reuters) - TiVo Inc said on Wednesday that it would deliver videos from Google Inc's popular Web site YouTube directly to television screens via its digital video recorders.

    TiVo said the service would be available later this year for high-speed Internet subscribers who have TiVo Series3 DVRs. It said that users would be able to log onto their YouTube accounts directly from their TiVo boxes.

    Ya but can you record 2 tv shows at a time, while watching a totally different show?

    Also you can add storage to the new tivo if im not mistaken.

    I'm not the HTPC guy, but I'm willing to bet that the software to do such exists.
