Is Dish considering swallowing TiVo's $7.5 billion poison pill? {Engadget HD}
Jun 10th 2009 7:43PM Don't forget to add the link to Davis Freeberg's web site and story. I mean, you guys mentioned Dish going to his website for research and then you don't mention it?
Lost: Greatest Hits {TV Squad}
May 17th 2007 12:42PM Walt is not coming back. I read some article that said Walt has really aged a lot since he left the show and it would not be realistic if he came back all grown up while everyone else stays the same. Although a) Another actor can play Walt or b) The island does age people oddly. Just think of Richard never growing older since we first saw him with little Ben.
Speaking of Kate's money shots, did anyone see Claire's boobies when she was bending over to get Aaron?
Annie in Looking Glass!? Yes, I am digging that. That would be awesome. I don't think Annie is dead. We never saw her die. Thus, in TV-speak, she's still considered alive.
Also glad to see Bernard and Rose again. Where were you hiding? Only tragedy can come of their relationship, though. They're so cute and cuddly... it can't last long. I think Bernard and Rose deserve their own flashback too. Let's give it to them. After all we still have three more seasons to wait until the end of the show.
Of course Locke will make it out alive. He's gonna take over the Others pretty soon. All signs are pointing to this.
One thing I can't figure out. Is Ben really a good guy deep down? The whole Ben flashback really made him more human that I'm starting to care about that goofy bug-eyed bastard.
Computer to TV ? .Shouldn't it be the Other Way ? {Blog Maverick}
Feb 1st 2007 8:50AM Well, it may seem like Cuban just invented the idea of putting video uploads on DVRs, but the truth is that this has existing for a while.
First, Comcast unveiled a video sharing site, called Ziddio (http://www.ziddio.com) that allows users to put their video on TV. It works the same way as YouTube, except video appear on the website as well as through Comcast's on-demand service.
Second, Tivo has TivoCast, which is essentially Internet content that is downloaded via your home network and stored on your DVR. In fact, I currently receive content from: Rocketboom, Cnet, Heavy.com and the New York Times. Tivocast was launched last year, June 2006.
Last, check out my PVR blog (http://www.allpvr.com/mark-cuban-use-dvr-as-a-computer/) where I discuss this story including some of the problems with TivoCast.
PVR Wire to retire on 31 January {PVR Wire}
Jan 30th 2007 2:59AM That is sad news. Being a PVR blogger myself I always read PVRWire. I wonder what will happen.
PVR Wire Lists the Top 11 Most Worthless or Annoying TiVo Moments of 2006 {PVR Wire}
Dec 16th 2006 5:03AM Good stuff.
The "It's not Tivo" campaign is a futile attempt to stop having the Tivo brand turned into a generic name. Much like Kleenex and Xerox.
It already seems that the use of Tivo to mean a generic DVR may be the fastest that's ever happened to a new product.
TiVo lists the top TV moments of 2006 {PVR Wire}
Dec 16th 2006 4:33AM Personally, this press release reminded me that I could catch most, if not all, of these TV moments on YouTube.
In fact, I went over to YouTube to look at some clips, I didn't turn on Tivo to watch them.
Also, I thought Katie Couric taking the number 1 spot was pretty lame. Was that really a TV "moment"?
A DivX PVR on the horizon? {PVR Wire}
Dec 16th 2006 4:22AM Who does this benefit? Divx is barely tolerable on a PC, why use it on a PVR? Hard drives are getting cheaper, codecs are getting better and Divx keeps on looking lame.
