Pop-Up Ads Coming to TiVo

TiVo has announced it will be introducing pop-up ads and they will not be featured during actual viewing of live shows. They will however fill about 25% of the screen and will be shown when fast forwarding through a show you have recorded and other places. Yuck. Yuck. Yuck!!! This will affect all TiVo except for DirectTV TiVos. I wish I had sattelite now. I guess this is good news for people actually wanting the products in the ads however, as you can send them your contact info by selecting contact me in the pop-up ad.
