Is Apple Buying a Dying Tivo?

Tivo has been running into some problems lately which in addition to making many people clutch their remotes with fear has made Tivo a sparkling acquisition target. So who would want to buy Tivo? Apple. The possibilities of what could happen if Apple buys Tivo makes us so excited that we can’t think straight. Thankfully, the people over at PVRBlog have a more sober analysis of all the possibilities:

A TiVo acquisition would also provide a place for iTunes in the living room. Apple’s AirPort Express proves Apples interest in moving out of the office and into the living rooom. There’s even a way to control an AirPort Express from the TiVo using HME.

The TiVo could also tie into Apple’s iLife suite. TiVo already plays well with iPhoto and iTunes, why not add iMovie and iDVD integration as well? My sister could make an iMovie of my nephew and send it to my TiVo between my 10 hours of Law & Order a day, then I could burn it using iDVD. Heck, why not let me show my Keynote slideshow using my TiVo?
