    Does anyone know if UPC are developing a version of the 'series link'. In my opinion this is the real weak link of their DVR and they'd be better focusing on this before the start working on HD

    Like a lot of copyrighted things, it'll probably be changed slightly, called something different, and off ya go.

    I'd say the name is copywrighted but I would think it is easy to get around. I'm no expert in patent law but it strikes me that a similar feature used to record an entire series can easily be implemented withough copywright infringement.
