Re: Time to buy...

said by r81984:

If you read the patents they are specifically for an idea.
It is not for actual hardware or software.
Abstract Ideas aren't patentable, but the embodiment of a specific idea is.

So for example, "recording TV" can't be patented. A 61 step process on how to record TV is patentable.

BTW those 61 steps embody the TiVo hardware and software.
