Just Jack Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 If they were to implement it, it wouldn't be long before TW sold rights to other companies to incorporate it into their own systems.
BRAWNDO Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 If they were to implement it, it wouldn't be long before TW sold rights to other companies to incorporate it into their own systems. I think the four major broadcast networks would like this feature. My link
BillsWatch Posted June 23, 2012 Posted June 23, 2012 Are they going to glue us to our seats, prop our eyelids open and disable mute button as well? Sorry they are not able to do same thing w/VCR I have or computer based recording software unless they are going to install root kits like Sony - that blunder has put Sony on the never buy list at this household. I was at Best Buy looking at TV section and someone was asking salesman about Sony equipment. He bragged about the quality. etc and people looking to buy said they would like to order 4 of a large screen LCD model. I asked salesman why he did not tell them about other feature Sony puts in - a root kit to hamper buyer from using system. They asked about it and salesman face went red saying he knew nothing about it - I told buyers to walk over to PCs and do a quick search and salesman said "No need to search about the malware". Buyers said you said you knew nothing about it and canceled order.
