These are two great brands... it'd be great if they could get together but wild rumors like this always fly before these macworld events

This would be awesome -- you're right signals, they are two great brands. Throw Google into the mix and you have a partnership to die for.

During last year’s Intel announcement, I heard that all press in attendance would get new notebooks but that didn’t happen. This one is probably just a rumor but if we think along the lines of <A href="http://www.techcrunch.com/2006/09/18/google-video-could-be-headed-to-apples-itv/" class="snap_nopreview">iTV</A> on its way, then it wouldn’t be a bad idea. <A href="%3Cbr%20/%3E%0Ahttp://www.pvrwire.com/2006/12/06/rumor-tivo-and-apple-to-partner-not-likely/" class="snap_nopreview">PVRWire</A> thinks that a partnership is highly unlikely but a licensing deal may be a possibility. TiVo has brand name recognition but declining market share. Apple has undeniable power, especially considering the amount of movies they’ve been able to sell for Disney on iTunes, but they have absolutely zero footing in the television market. They need each other. Problem is, Apple doesn’t often admit to needing anything or anyone.
