said by en102 :TiVO has little to stand on. What's next... me suing TiVO for not working with analog after Feb 2009 or not working with OTA boxes ? Uh, it will work fine with OTA boxes. They just released an update to support them. Anyway, that's a Series 2 issue; SDV is a Series 3 issue. (The Series 3 already had a built-in digital OTA tuner.)
It's about time a cable company got punished for deploying SDV without accommodation in place for CableCard users -- since it violates the intent of the CableCard mandate -- but this is too little, too late. Even the silly tuning adapter (a ridiculous kludge of a design) will only help TiVos, and not many (any?) other CC devices. -- 09 F9 11 02 9D 74 E3 5B D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C0 |
