Is it clear that one or more parts of TiVo's technology directly competes with that of GMST?

It is going to be hard to sell that monthly fee when there are TVs on the floor with built-in EPGs.

Confusion still exists for me here. Does TiVo's ERP (erase/record/play) technology (for recording/stopping/playing TV or Web transmission content) incorporate an IPG and/or EPG? If so, how does that IPG and/or EPG square with Gemstar's patented space?

Responses invited.
