LOST: Definite Ending, No Cliffhangers

LOST producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse promise a definite ending to lost:

Lindelof said: “We won’t be vague and ambiguous – there will be a lot of answers. We feel that if we hold anything back in the final season, it would be bad. Everyone’s come this far and they want a conclusion to the story. We’ve no plans to continue the story of Lost beyond series six. My wife says ‘never say never’. I say ‘never’.”

Supreme Court Rules In Favor Of Cablevision on Remote DVRs

The Supreme Court ruled today that Cablevision Systems Corp remove DVR technology does not violate copyright law. That means cable companies will be able to offer consumers to have DVR technology without actually having to have a box in their homes.

I’m not sure this is really going to make a difference, in the long run. TiVo and other DVRs are great to have in the home, and it’s nice to have some control over what you’re recording, rather than leaving it to the cable companies.

Also, it seems unlikely that the cable companies that make money every month from in-home DVR subscriptions will want give that up.
