Amazon Unbox on TiVo Going HD

While I’ve heard murmurs from various corners for quite some time, this is the first official confirmation from TiVo that Amazon Unbox will be going HD:

Unbox, the content-downloading service TiVo started with Internet retail leader Amazon.com last year, can?t process HD content, though the companies will announce HD capabilities ?in the not too distant future,? Mr. Denney said.

Megazone suspects a rollout would be tied to TiVo’s support of H.264 later this year in conjunction with YouTube playback. Though, I agree that an improved aspect ratio might be more meaningful than higher definition content - which presumably comes at a higher price, and with a slower download.
