Let Dish buy them out so they can fix their DVR issues.

Didn't Dish already pay them? Why should they buy them then? Unless they could throw the entire management out on the streets without a penny to their names as revenge, but we all know they wouldn't do that.

Don't need too. They already have cross licencing as part of their settlement

It was a joke, as in "fix the damn DVR issues!" ...Tivo engineers might do better in that regard.
