Disney movies, independent films, anime and Bollywood flicks have something in common – starting soon, you’ll be able to download them directly to your TiVo.  TiVo has struck deals with Disney, CinemaNow and Jaman.com to get new downloadable content to TiVo boxes everywhere. 

The content will be rolled out over the next couple of weeks.  Stuff from Jaman.com, like indy films, anime, and Bollywood flicks, will be available today.  CinemaNow brings the Disney content and that won’t be available until next week.

Disney movies will be available to rent and start at $2.99.  Films provided by Jaman.com can be rented or purchased; pricing starts at $1.99.  Also, expect some free content. 

What kind of movies can you expect?  How about “Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest,” “Robotech,” “Ghost in the Shell,” and “Supersize Me” and plenty of others.  Unfortunately, none of the content will be in HD, but expect that down the line.
