Chadwick Matlin discusses the current financial health of the TiVo company, which is losing money selling TiVos but making money suing those who infringe its patents. I have no idea what the future holds for the company — it may have everything to do with how judges rule — but I sure don't want to see it go away, even though almost-comparable products are available from others. I've had a TiVo since the days when I had to explain to every single person I knew what the hell that thing was and why they'd want one.
