There is an article
here that seems to suggest our chances of getting lovefilm on tivo are enhanced by the take over of Love film by Amazon

Fortunately, with Amazon striding into the picture (and, if necessary, the Competition Commission willing), Lovefilm has a better chance than most of doing the right kind of deals with the Hollywood studios – who will be mindful of maintaining a good relationship with "Earth's biggest selection", or whatever Amazon calls itself.

Apparently movie streaming is big business in the States but is prevented from taking off here due to one company owning the rights. With a company as big as Amazon getting involved, then we might stand a chance of the monopoly being challenged. Just what we need. Interesting reference to the competition comission possibly getting involved as well. Things are getting more interesting.
