I know this is a bit off-topic but this goes to support my ongoing assertions that major media continues to try to bully anyone they don't approve of.
Can you believe the legal threat DISH Networks is facing from the major TV network of a copyright lawsuit infringement for building a feature to allow skipping of commercials?

Is this one of the stupidest things we have have ever heard so far?
This is an interesting legal strategy I am learning from. IN other words, Dish is asking to the courts to rule that it is NOT copyright infringement BEFORE they activate the feature instead of taking the chance of getting hit with a lawsuit after the fact.
I like that Dish Networks is getting ahead of the challenge very much. It is very smart.
