Yeah the latest is, "poss settlement" was replaced with "9:30 a.m. adj for briefing."
I hope that doesn't mean the Dish AMC possible settlement isn't going forward or being discussed between them.

I sure hope from now on the judge does not complain if there is any delay of a day or two because Dish's attorney did some incredibly evil thing that needed special investigation.
If you are bitter because you migrated to VOOM and Dish removed it later, I presume you also remember by that time you had watched the same VOOM shows the 100th time.
Look when VOOM refused to make the service work better for its partner, because they thought they could stick it to Dish because Dish signed a bad contract, then they cannot now complain Dish refuses to pay for some of their AMC channels.
As far as who is to be tought a lesson, I am sure Charlie had learned many things from the past, and will continue to do so. It is his money to play, whatever he sees fit. I am not going to feel the least bit bad if he losses a couple of billions. The guy had lost his shirts several times in the past, without him there would not be so much real life courtroom entertainment.
Your personal bitterness pales, I mean seriously, pales in comparison.
Lawyers for Dish asked permission for Missus Double-Delete to address the court
I give it a month a most before he starts saying where is my Fearnetlol

PTVC said:So far, everything that has come out in the lawsuit debunks your theory.
Let me just conclude by saying you do indeeed have habits. Some of them may be treatable. I'm just kidding!!!![]()
The channel that had 12 people watching at most times of the day if I remember correctly was HDNews.
News of a possible settlement is being reported... http://www.variety.com/article/VR1118060932
Isn't it possible that they could hold a joint press conference to announce it? Or would they have to present it to the judge first?
Nothing stops them from filing a motion to withdraw the case, if they so wish.
That was not a theory, but facts.
It was not interested in the success of the service, their only interest was they could screw the partner.
One must ask, why the "the service" term was added to the agreement
Is it not reasonable to understand that the purpose of such requirement was, at the very minimum, to prevent exactly what happened to VOOM on Dish, when there was nothing to watch and no one was watching? Was that requirement met?
If you are faced with such a partner, you would likely have done worse just to get rid of it.
PTVC said:Juries are made up of real people. To assume they will see through the facts thus far and rule in favor of Dish is wishful thinking. The question before the jury is not the content, but the contract.
What are the chances that we could get some of the Voom channels also when AMC comes back?

The Voom production studio assets were sold. However, they do have a lot of content that could make its way somewhere.
I highly doubt the old Voom wants to 'raise from the dead'.
It would be VERY nice to see a "Monsters" or "Fung Fu" marathon on IFC every so often though... IMO, it would be a perfect fit.
If they do settle I bet we see every AMC channel appear on Dish. Probably MSG too to keep the Dolands happy. Probably even an agreement to carry future channels.
