This post (http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/05/23/1437247&tid=) on /. (http://www.slashdot.org) is in regards to a Wired News article (http://www.wired.com/news/business/0,1367,58957,00.html) which talks about the possibility that ReplayTV may lose commercial advance now that they're owned by D&M.

Of course, I used the opportunity to plug SageTV (http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=65262&cid=6025455)

Thought this development might be of interest to all of you.

It's at +3 now.. should get some eyeballs to your site anyhow.

I'm amazed that everytime PVRs come up on Slashdot, MythTV, Freevo, etc are mentioned, but rarely have I seen a mention of SageTV. I guess that's just a fact of life being such a young product, but it'd be a shame to go with another offering without even comparing Sage.

Yes, I have. And I really think you guys are taking the smart route. Let someone else fight the legal battles, and maybe add the features in the future when their legality is more clear.
