    TiVo's Patent Victory Stands Strong [view article]
    . It is incredible that Echostar's Ergen is so arrogant to the point of trying to bring a case that is not an issue for the Supreme Court. Moreover, Echostar should be settling with TiVo--if you search the history of Echostar record in courts for stealing and infringing patents and copyrights is overwhelming.
    When criminals repeat and repeat their crimes they must be punished NOT protected. I don’t understand why TiVo did not appealed for Treble Damages.

    DirecTV Dumps TiVo, I Dump DirecTV [view article]
    Well, I've had DTV 8 years, and SD Tivo in various incarnations since day 1. No cable out here so no options. Three years ago I just bought a 4 Hughes Series 2 TiVo's, upgraded them to 250GB, hacked them with Weetheet's really simple method and voila! Ethernet at 100Mbit, multi room viewing from the hard drive of all the TiVO's, remote web interface, download recordings to PC, the lot. Cost practically nothing although a few hours on the phone persuading DTV to activate them :-)

    Now .. no HD. A bit stuck. Then I discovered TVersity, and D-Link media players. I can probably just about live with DTV's HD DVR for HD programming, as long as that's all it needs to do.

    And yes, I have Verizon FiOS (30/15) but they won't deliver video to my address, some franchise problem.

    Echostar/Dish? Not an option.

    Why is this so hard? I'm reasonably computer savvy, have an enormous fiber internet pipe, and I'm struggling to get the functionality the Hughes TiVO had 5 years ago.

    YouTube and TiVo: Increasing Access to Content [view article]
    Should have gotten an AppleTV. It syncs with YouTube account. I love it. YouTube rocks, endless amounts of entertainment on there. I thought YouTube had been on TiVo forever, guess I was mistaken. Reply

    General Discussion on TIVO
    Wow. Good question. I hold the stock and don't know. One thing that would help me decide is if someone could clear up exactly how strong the Tivo technology patents are. Since they've won the lawsuit with DISH Networks (but still haven't collected??), it's been said they have rock solid patents on time-shifting and can go after other companies producing DVRs. It looks like they chose to align with Comcast through software upgrading of the Comcast DVRs, but I can never find news on where that's at.

    They'll probably have to collect the ~$100 million from Dish before they can sue other manufacturers, but I thought I also read that Comcast has been granted rights to deliver it's OnDemand service with licensed content delivered by servers... so back to the original question... is this a buy or a sell???

    Cablevision Gets a Win in Its Legal Struggle Over DVR Rights [view article]
    Tivo has many value features that the Comcast DVR does not have. It knows the TV schedule, so it will record a program even if there is a time or date change. Also, it has wishlists, so you can automatically record Marilyn Munroe movies, for example. Comcast offers Tivo as an option. Reply

    As a healthcare provider, I can tell you that United Health Care is a joke. They are continuously rated as the worst healthcare plan in the country. May they go bankrupt and soon. Reply

    YouTube Coming to TiVo, But Only for Under 750,000 Users [view article]
    All our home movies are posted to YouTube for grandma and grandpa, who live on the other coast and are hungry for video of their new grandkids. Being able to pull up all those clips on the TiVo is killer. Reply

    The End of Broadcast TV Nears [view article]
    I don't understand why the stockholders don't demand more from TV executives. Sort of reminds me of General Motors, "We just need to market the product right, more gas hogs, more Hummers". TV is a vast wasteland, I too say, "Let it die". I canceled my satellite service in 2002 and have been TV free since then. Reply

    Like the movie studios, the networks have become divisions of very large multi-national corporations with many other interests.Each division must show substantial profits or else. The result is the production of least common denominator tv and films notwithstanding the abysmal content of the product.TAKE NO RISKS in the choice of material.I write this as a former film producer and studio executive of many years standing.

    The End of Broadcast TV Nears [view article]
    What a great article! As an engineer that deals with broadcasters and networks, I learned several years ago that with minor exceptions, the technology and programming are irrelevent to management. They don't want to pay for anything unless it interrupts the flow of the commercials. Good enough is good enough. Redundancy? Nobody's watching our digital anyways. 2009 is going to be a lot of fun.
