Dish-TiVo Patent Dispute Continues Multichannel

Dish Network and its set-top company EchoStar filed a lawsuit against TiVo, claiming their new DVR software does not infringe on TiVo's patents, Multichannel News reports. A jury ruled in April 2006 that Dish's old DVRs infringed on TiVo's patents, the newspaper says. Dish has filed an appeal and is asking a judge to overrule the verdict after examining its new technology, the newspaper notes.
