 LinklistPremium join:2002-03-03 Longport, NJ kudos:5 | Flexibility in how content offered - means no ad skipping The patent is about how to minimize central disk storage, but still be legal - that is have a user use dedicated storage only during playback. But the following comment was interesting: greater flexibility and functionality in how content is offered to users IOW, stop fast forwarding thru ads would be part of the offering. -- »www.mittromney.com/s/repeal-and-···bamacare »www.mittromney.com/issues/health-care |

| I have said it before when I was a charter customer at least 6 years ago now, you could go to the approved list of external hardrive's and hook it up and bam more storage no hassles nothing. Back then I hooked up a 500gb and I was happy as hell never had to worry about space. I don't know why it takes the biggest cable provider to be dragging ass for so many years. |
