Recently, I was visiting the blog of a law student/patent agent/soon to be attorney that Kurt and I know. He wrote an entry in response to a comment he received from one of his articles concerning a MythTV project of his (from what we could gather MythTV is somewhat similar DVR system to TiVo or Replay – details can be found at http://www.mythtv.org/ ). The comment asked whether he was concerned about whether or not he was concerned that he might be infringing any patents held by TiVo or any other companies concerning the technology. His response can be viewed
