I don't get it; what exactly is in this patent and how come Dish Network is the only company TiVo is going after, when Digeo, Microsoft, Cisco, Motorola, Pace, etc. all have DVR solutions?

Is TiVo simply going after the low-hanging fruit in order to set a precedent which to club the bigger guys?

They all took a license from TiVo way back. Echostar (Dish) is the only company that was itching to fight.
