20TIL6: Nope, the employment thing is a recent change and happened after the name change. Unless changing the name made hiring me more palatable or something, but I don’t think that’s the case.

“Disclaimer: Iâ€™m currently employed by Sling Media, which is owned by EchoStar.”

I never knew that. Did this have any bearing on the recent name change for the site?

So if Dish Network loses at the Supreme Court level, do they have to pay Tivo before they can continue to use the Dish DVR’s? Do you guys think that Dish will do what Directv once did, and partner with Tivo for their DVR software? That would seriously get me looking into switching to Dish as my provider.

Once the Supreme Court settles is in favour of TiVo (or refuses to hear the case), who will they turn to next? The President? The Queen? God?

This is getting kinda ridiculous.
