Tivo Unbox Download Loophole

Posted April 3rd, 2007 by Jose Alvear

According to HDTiVo, there’s a loophole that lets users download purchased Amazon Unbox movies to multiple Tivos in your house.

After buying an Unbox movie for downloading, you can choose multiple Tivos from the drop-down box.

“After doing that, a confirm page comes up (for me in a new tab) which I close. I am left with the prior thumbnail page that still has the drop down box. I can then choose another device to download to and click download…”

As ZatzNotFunny points out, you don’t have to do this, since “the license and content are transferable, but like many hacks that isn’t the point.”
