Gave us:

I'll run right out and buy a Tivo and hook it to my Dish receiver,
and how???? If I wanted DVR functionality from Dish, I'd have to
use their equipment and pay for rental. Stick to what you know.


You are obviously unaware of emerging devices.

Not HD.

Dish Network offers customers the DISH Player-DVR 942 HD Receiver with
DVR functionality.

Under their rules and over compression.

DirectTV:

You might also want to examine the cover story on the
April 2 EE Times.

No matter what you get, if the protected content flag is in place,
the hardware won't let you do full resolution with it.

How often do you think it won't be set? During commercials?

But my NVidia 8800 GTS and my Windows Vista Ultimate does.
Hahahahahahahaha!

Bwuahahahahahahah!

I bet none of those have analog inputs, do they? If you think a Dish box is
going to feed an HD signal to some HDMI capture card, your crazy. This is
my whole point, they will use the technology to intentionally not be
compatible and to deny you your rights that you already have. It's about
choice and freedom. You don't get it though, so just forget it.
