It will launch in conjunction with four specific TV shows: the Oprah Winfrey Show; The Colbert Report; The Ellen DeGeneres Show; and Burn Notice. But if a “product is seen or advertised on any TV show or network, and sold by Amazon.com it can be merchandised to viewers through TiVo,” Evan Young, director of broadband services for TiVo, said in a statement.
