Saying that you can already get the content to me is erelevant, it's the ease (and speed) of accessing that content. Using your logic it's just as good to have thousands of VHS tapes with said content on, which I'm sure you would agree would be horrid. It's all about ease.

On a side note you can't view websites on the TiVo, what it does it consolidate all the content in one place under one search scheme.
