Supreme Court declines to hear remote storage DVR appeal, cloud recording is on the way
It seems like Cablevision and others have been trying to roll out “remote storage” network DVRs forever, and now that the Supreme Court has decided against hearing the appeal of the Hollywood studios looking to block it, they should finally be able to deliver as soon as this summer. Of course, there’s benefits to having a locally stored copy of I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here, but just in case we forgot to queue up a recording, the power went out or suffered some other manner of catastrophe, we’d still have access to all the Lou Diamond Phillips anyone could ask for, and there’s really no way the highest court in the land could get in the way of that.
