Well, it looks like this service might finally provide the sorts of benefits
that TIVO provides in the USA but for only $2 per week or so.  So the
question for us Mac users is can we get Elgato to integrate ICE into their
EyeTV Mac digital TV product?  What do you reckon Daniel?

Ice is a new Australian invention that is set to change the way we all watch
and record TV forever. Ice is a new technology that allows you to:

Reduce the volume during commercial breaks - you control the loudness of the
ads.

Check what¹s on TV at the touch of a button ­ an on-screen interactive TV
guide.

Ice-powered PVRs let you record any program in real time (not scheduled
time) with the touch of a button ­ no more confusing codes, video clocks and
manuals.

Prevent children viewing unsuitable TV programs ­ a new parental control
system.

Automatically change to your nominated channel when commercials start
- returns you to your program at the end of the break.

Automatically remove ads when playing back a recorded program. - removes
advertisements. 

Automtically blanks picture and sound during commercial breaks - you never
see or hear the ads at all
