TiVo sues EchoStar for Patent Infringement

Posted by michael on from the there-can-be-only-one dept.

jhkoh writes "TiVo has filed a lawsuit against satellite TV provider EchoStar for infringing on its 'Time Warp' patent for DVR time-shifting. TiVo CEO Mike Ramsay adds: 'Our aim here is not to litigate everybody ... but to further advance and seek commercial relationships so that people recognize the value of our intellectual property, and give us fair compensation.'"

      You are hereby declared redundant. The GNAA were a whim, no more than a feather in the hat of PenisBird. TrollKore, a more persistent /. Phenomenon are persistently boring, the same old |ee7 cr4p that has become to be expected.

      Glory lies with the humorous trolls, those that have the skill to satirise falatic posts, those that can truly offend, to an adult that is, not a 1st grader or a retard. So FOAD trollkore (won't miss you), FOAD GNAA (pity about the fake .torrent you posted).

      It is not the commies, the government, the nigger, nor the corporates. It is your paranoia.

    OT: you know what I hate? fucking spammers who send their shit to my cell phone. I just got one from textmsgmarket@yahoo.com. I have nothing to say about this topic, I'm just hoping a couple spiders will crawl this site and send spam to the collossal fuckhead behind that address. Mods: help a brother out. Leave this at 0 for a couple minutes, mkay? :-)

    It was taken down days ago. Some times it is domain-parked, sometimes it is 'forbidden', sometimes it is plain unreachable. Trollkore is f4ck3d up the ass with a greasy yoda doll.

    So for example, the invention of the dual head hard drive predating the TiVo allows for the storing (recording) of one file in the background while reading another file from the disk?

    Just because you're piping the output to a TV and taking the download from a coaxial cable doesn't change what you're doing.
