Apparently, it's even worse already. :/ I just finished watching TeXtra #88 <http://www.podshow.com/shows/?mode=detail&episode_id=84796>, and in Natali's viewer mail (at the end of the show), a guy wrote in that he had ordered something on Pay Per View on Comcast, and set his DVR to record it since he wasn't going to be home.
He says that when he got home, it wasn't on his DVR and that when he complained to Comcast, they informed him that they were no longer allowing Pay Per View events to be recorded on DVRs. http://textra.podshow.com/ -- Bill Cammack http://billcammack.com --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, "Jay dedman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On 10/24/07, Jay dedman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Will there be a time when corporate-owned internet providers start choosing what goes through >their networks?
