More business for Newscorp's NDS

The recent federal court's verdict on the long standing patent litigation (involving the US patent 6,233,389) between the Dish Network (erstwhile Echostar - WO2008027406A1) and the digital video solutions provider Tivo has consolidated the position of NDS, a Newscorp and Permira owned company. NDS is only the second player in the same field providing digital video solutions standing second to Tivo. NDS has patents (US20090080866A1, US20080285943A1) in the field of Video Substitution or the ability to rewind, fastforward etc options on the satellite tv. Already NDS has several clients across the globe. With this court order, the position of NDS would be bolstered or subtly proclaimed that its THE alternative for the satellite TV providers across the globe to seek video solutions inorder to showcase the video subsititution features.
