On Second Thought... Appeals Court Vacates TiVo's Big Patent Win Over Echostar
,----[ Quote ]
| TiVo's lawsuit against EchoStar for patent
| infringement has been a mostly one-sided
| affair. TiVo appeared to win at every turn, to
| the point that there were stories suggesting
| EchoStar would have to start blocking the use
| of its own DVR. TiVo had celebrated these
| victories by suing others as well, and
| demanding ridiculous sums of money from
| EchoStar. Of course, it seemed odd to us that,
| while all of this was happening, the US Patent
| Office was admitting the patents might not be
| valid. Oops.

TiVo âHooks Upâ With PayPerPost
,----[ Quote ]
| Pay Per Post has been a very controversial company from the start. Because
| they pay individuals to make fake user generated content, that are really
| covert advertisements for sponsors, the FTC has even expressed some concerns
| over the truth in advertising issues related to their service.
