Sue,

Gemstar invented the PVR technology and many of its core functions. They developed it before TiVo was even incorporated. Microsoft licenses the technology and integrated it into the Echostar Dishplayer with the guide, pause, record, etc.

Gemstar has filed a patent infringement suit against TiVo.
