    SO now the tivo crap has invaded the sanctity of the pub? Yech...

    We have heard all of these arguments before, over and over. Nothing new here, other than the revealing of how much money Tivo wants; the stakes of which are such that we know Echostar will fight until the end.

    And I don't think Vampz was trolling, he was stating his position - no different than riffjim did. (From both of whom, we have heard the same argument, time and time again). And they are not the only ones.

    Oh well... I am going back to the peaceful quiet of the weather thread.

    I think this is more of a WZ thread than a pub thread...

    It seems like a lot of money and way out of proportion, but a Texas jury recently awarded almost 2 billion in a patent infringement case.
    Jury awards Centocor href="http://www.bizjournals.com/philadelphia/stories/2009/06/29/daily17.html".7B in patent case against Abbott - Philadelphia Business Journal:


    It seems that in this economy it is easier to make money in court than to actually sell your product.

    1 billion sounds like an Obama number or is it a trillion?

    Sorry I saw that one billion dollars, and I thought it was more a joke. I never ever post in the dish/tivo crap.

    Aint that the truth. "Troll" is way overused.


    Anyways, TiVo is a f'in joke and they are just reaching for whatever they can to stay afloat. Thier business model has stunk for awhile, so does the new Al Sharpton/Jesse Jackson "pay me to go away" model.
