I just posted a feature request on TiVo's site --
http://research.tivo.com/suggestions/
Here is the full request I posted:
==============================
I would like to see on-demand instructional videos. For example,
painting videos (other than the 2 or 3 painters who have shows on
PBS).
There are a lot of how-to videos out there that I can only see if I
buy a fairly expensive DVD. Or I can spend $10 or $15 and wait a few
days if I rent them via mail order. On-demand would be better.
Thanks.
www.smartflix.com has a catalog full of how-to DVDs that I would love
to see that available via TiVo. Painting is is the one I'm mainly
interested in. But the site also offers:
Arts & Crafts (drawing, painting, pottery, etc.);
Hobbies (billiards, dancing, radio controlled vehicles, etc.);
Musical Instruction (guitar, piano, etc.);
and so on.
If a catalog like that showed up on my TiVo as Video on Demand, I
would be very happy.
==============================
I wondered if anyone had any feedback on:
1. Is that Suggestions page the best place to post such a request?
2. Are there any other ways that I can currently get what I am
requesting ("how to paint" videos on demand)?
