IP Democracy: Internet Archive a Treasure Trove of MPEG2 Video

Courtesy of PVR Blog, an intriguing concept for Tivo users: download MPEG2 videos stored on the Internet Archive for viewing on the TV. Internet Archive has hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of hours of MPEG2 video programming, from movies (Night of the Living Dead) to old cartoons (Betty Boop). A web site called Worship the Glitch has set up a daily “TV station” for Tivo users called GlitchTV that scans the archives and makes video available for Tivo users to download onto their PCs and then transfer to their TVs.
