Poopli sounds like a long overdue service for owners of certain models of ReplayTV units. They used to allow the sharing of shows between friends, and Poopli helps turn strangers into friends by letting users request a program while the folks that have them can send their programs to others.
I always knew ReplayTV had the chance to become a great big TV version of Napster and Poopli looks to be the missing part.

Actually, there's a Yahoo Group at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/replaytvsharing/ that's been facilitating this for quite some time. It's really come in handy when I've missed a show or couldn't record two at once. It's a great service and it definitely beats TiVo!

Nothing compares to Poopli. Poopli alone should make people flock in droves from Tivo to Replay.

Except that new ReplayTV units (the 5500 series) don't have the Internet video sharing feature, because Replay's current owner feared law suits from tv studios. For those of us with 4500 or 5000 series Replays, Poopli is great.
