As far as VM are concerned, Filmflex would still be the primary film rental service on TiVo. But there's room for Lovefilm and other IPTV film apps via TiVo.

With the backing of Amazon, I can see Lovefilm getting on loads of boxes, its already on Samsung & Sony TVs and Blu Ray players and I'm sure there will be a YouView app as well at some point.

Besides, at the moment there's no HD streaming option from Lovefilm so for On-Demand HD movies, Flimflex is the only option on VM, for now. Plus you already need to subscribe to Lovefilm before streaming their content anyway (and they currently have no Universal titles to rent), so the impact on Flimflex won't be that great.
