DISH -VS- VOOM - A Settlement has been reached!

I was not given anything, only was shown some stats.

The channel that had 12 people watching at most times of the day if I remember correctly was HDNews.

wow! only 12?

Don't get too excited, but I see the court updated their docket to reflect the following comment. Is this one of those pie-in-the-sky general statements (i.e., the court encourages all parties to engage in settlement dissussions prior to and during a trial), have the parties agreed to meet to engage in serious settlement discussions, or have they negotiated a possible settlement that they wish to inform the court. I don't know...just haven't seen this tidbit reflected on the docket prior to it being updated late this morning.

Consider the source...Dish. I talked to several others who viewed the 10-minute morning and afternoon news summaries on HDNews, so I'm not about to swallow this hook, line and stinker.

Let's avoid the Tivo discussion because we've been down that road...it's never pretty, and I don't like seeing anyone shaking a finger in my face while crying.

You cannot raise the issue of a CEO's fiduciary duty to his shareholders, then insist we cannot discuss it because the evidence does not support your claim.

Not as if you often shy away from cases that are "never pretty". You don't want to discuss the TiVo case not because it was history, you have been more than happy to point out history when it was convenient.

Unfortunately after the TiVo case ended, all of your dire warnings fell flat. But you were not allowed to shake a finger and cry, so you'd rather not talk about it.

Dont forget the channel was a loop of news that repeated every 15 minutes. So not too surprising.
