surely amazon dont need to get into discussions with VM? What is there to agree on ?? dont amazon want more customers? wouldnt their app being on tivo lead to more customers?? surely they have an app on american tivos so it would just be a case of modifying that a little bit?? surely the cost of doing so would be made back by having more customers??

it seems a bizarre stalemate. VM dont want to pay to design the app- rightly so. amazon wont even though theyll get more customers- bizarre
