Users will see links to products popping up in various parts of the TiVo interface. For example, if you're looking at a listing for a late night talk show, you might find links to buy books, CDs, or DVDs from that night's guests.
The advantage of ordering from TiVo is that you can make impulse purchases while watching a program, while recording the rest of the program in the background for later viewing. Of course, as anyone with a penchant for picking up candy and trashy magazines in the grocery store checkout lane can tell you, it'd be nice to have the choice to opt-out of the service in order to avoid impulse purchases.

Unless you want to be charged twice at the same time, do NOT use Amazon for any purchase at all. They charge you twice to hold your money for their own greed. Amazon did this to me, and caused my checking account to actually BOUNCE. I was carefully budgeting my account, down to the penney, but bounced because of Amazon!
