“It is truly unfortunate for consumers that Fox has filed suit against DISH Network. That suit charges DISH with copyright violations for the satellite company’s DVR which allows consumers to skip commercials, but also against the Sling adapter (formerly Sling Box) which allows consumers to stream their TV signal to a laptop at a different location. This is a frontal assault on home recording and fair use. Ordinary consumers are in its crosshairs, while Fox demands technological stagnation from innovators.
There probably was no great need for Comcast to raise the usage caps on its broadband service, as it did last week from 250 gigabytes (GB) to 300 GB per month. If the company thought for an instant that the modest increase bought it any good will from its theoretical regulators, it needn't have bothered.

“Senate Antitrust Subcommittee Chairman Kohl hit all the right points in the letter he sent this morning to the Justice Department and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).
“He correctly perceives the dangers of large companies accumulating spectrum resources to strengthen their own market position and hurt competition, and that even Verizon’s offer to sell spectrum would not improve the competitive situation in a concentrated wireless market.
Consumers should not be deprived of the right to watch broadcast TV through the technologies they choose, Public Knowledge and the Electronic Frontier Foundation said Wed. in a brief filed with the U.S. District Court in New York City.

Right now, whether and how the Internet can bring competition to the video marketplace depends in part on arguments about the dictionary. While innovators are out there bringing new products to market, the courts and the FCC are behind the scenes trying to figure out if they should be allowed to stay in business. The answer turns on the meanings of words. In one case, the Southern District Court of New York has to figure out what "public" means. While it's doing this, the FCC will be considering what a "channel" is. These hairsplitting discussions will help shape the future of online television.
AereoCopyright holders have the right to control "public performances" of their works. This case hinges on whether Aereo, which I would characterize as a "remote antenna" service, infringes on the public performance right.
