Zip.ca and Akimbo Systems Marry Online DVD Rentals with Internet-Delivered Video-on-Demand

This is the first I've heard of an online DVD rental company using a set-top box to deliver internet video on demand.
Via CNW Group:

"OTTAWA, Feb. 14 /CNW Telbec/ - Zip.ca, Canada's leading online video service, and Akimbo(TM) Systems, the first Internet-delivered video-on-demand service for television, have reached an agreement for Zip.ca to bring Akimbo's broad library of content to thousands of Zip.ca members through Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005."
