I'm assuming by using a App on TIVO that it will use the broadband link to send the required stream - quick and easy and more importantly cheap to implement

I have zero interest in the Olympics even through I can see the stadiums from my office window and have no desire to record any of it
That is fair enough, we all have different likes and dislikes.

However, in the context of an 8% increase in TVXL to "make sure we continue to give you the best home entertainment and services" and a long term commitment to a greater number of HD channels I think gearing up capacity for the biggest sporting event ever held in this country is a reasonable expectation.
