TiVo Inc. has announced a partnership with online video service provider Brightcove to deliver Web-based content to TiVo's broadband TV boxes. Soon, some TiVo owners will be able to record TV shows

TiVo has become Brightcove's latest distribution channel; Time Warner's AOL is Brightcove's biggest distribution partner, for which it will begin distributing videos this summer. Other content
partners include National Lampoon Inc.'s TogaTV.com and MTV's Teen Channel. Brightcove has yet to determine which programs will debut on TiVo's digital video recorders. The programs will be offered
for free but may carry advertising.
