ATLANTA, May 6, 2002 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- As participants in Time Warner Cable's field trials of Scientific-Atlanta's new Explorer 8000(R) set-top box pause live TV and record their favorite programming, they're also recording cable history. They're the first to experience the power of digital video recording (DVR) aboard the world's only complete home entertainment platform for cable.
The Explorer 8000 home entertainment server is designed with consumers in mind, offering exciting new, next generation TV services. Consumers will be able to pause live TV, record one channel while watching another, record two channels and playback one channel simultaneously, and enjoy picture-in-picture (PIP) on any consumer television set. The Explorer 8000 home entertainment server features an 80-gigabyte hard drive, capable of recording up to 50 hours of programming without the need for a phone line and is designed to support the wide range of interactive and on-demand services deployed today.

Well thanks ya'll. I won't be able to keep up with today's
press releases. Tons of them coming out of New Orleans.

Two that appear significant. Multichannel reports that
Fox has signed with Indemand for VOD content.

TVN which does VOD distribution to MSO's hired away a
DIVA VP.
