Okay, I've learned a couple new things. Firstly, this isn't a TiVo-exclusive thing. It's through Amazon, TiVo has just partnered with them to allow the downloads to go to your TiVo. There is a player available from Amazon (called "Unbox") that allows you to download the movies to your computer and watch them through the player. So all you need is a free Amazon account, no need to remain subscribed to TiVo.

Secondly, you CAN burn them to DVDs, but they aren't in a DVD-playable format. You'd have to play them on a computer with the Unbox player. I've seen mention of "authorized computer", so I'd imagine, similar to Apple and iTunes, there is a limit to the number of computers you can link to your account and be allowed to play your purchased videos on.
