I have been a loyal customer of Dish network for over 8 years and had several different receivers. I now have 2 dvrs and love them. Think of them as vcr on steroids. Trying to copywrite the basic dvr functionally is like Apple trying to copywrite "POD" and anything connected with it.
Weather Dish strole Tivo tech is kind of a mute point now, the "cat is out the bag", so to speak. Tivo neeeds to reinvent itselve, come up with new or better programing for the boxes it has in the wild now, I see they have the series 3, which I belive are HD. Dish had HD boxes for several years now, Maybe Dish should sue Tivo for their HD boxes... As for proving what dish did several years ago, the programs have been rewritten and edited so many times since then It's be hard to tell what was the orginial code and where it came from, Both Dish and Tivo are making toms of money of their respective boxes, and will continue to until the DRM cripples them, Come on Call it a draw and let it go and invoate ,, In the end the loser will be both the customers of both dish network and tivo , they will have either two cripples choices or one cripples choice, or worst yet none at all, because the big guys can play nice together. Tivo, Don't be a Microsoft, and not play nice with the other players. long live Dishnetwork and pvrs.. and yes long live tivo too...
The X-Fi3 keeps with the company's commitment to audio fidelity, thanks to the apt-X codec, which supposedly offers audio quality similar to a wired connection when streaming. On that front, the device also handles FLAC files.
