TiVo vs. Dish over DVR

Technology patent infringement is becoming a bigger and bigger problem as technology continues to evolve and people have easier access to information

. With this, many cases of patent infringement are coming to light, highlighted by the case of TiVo and Dish Network.

TiVo Vs Dish

One of the most recent and controversial patent infringement cases involved DVR (digital video recorder) maker TiVo Inc and TV service provide Dish Network. In June 2009, a federal court ordered Dish to pay TiVo with $103 million settlement for violating the latter's patented software.

Five years ago, TiVo filed patent infringement against Dish for infringing the Time Warp program software that allows people to watch a show while recording another program at the same time.

Meanwhile, another blow to the TV service provider is the court ruling that ordered the company to remove the infringed technology from its 193,000 DVR devices which have already been distributed to its subscribers.
