I think that there is no way you will get HBO as a subscription service, and if the new Amazon Instant video does launch on Tivo, you can buy HBO content via that e.g.

I expect you are right about that, but it's a pity, because I'm sure that if there was a subscription arrangement, such as the one we have with Netflix, this would rake in more money for Amazon and HBO. I don't think that many of us are going to be splashing out to 'buy' these rights to stream the programming. I only want to view them once anyway, no point in watching a second time, although I know some people who just watch the same stuff over and over again.
