For each show there could be a "Make available for download" selection, just like "save to vcr", etc. Then the file-sharing is done between Tivo's. No PC necessary, reducing the need for 3 different client applications. That also wouldn't expose your entire "inventory". Only the shows you want to share. Then, if you want to watch it on your PC, you use the Home Media Option (I know, it's not available for Mac's yet) and download it to your PC.
