It seems like Cablevision and others have been trying to roll out “remote storage” network DVRs forever , and now that the Supreme Court has decided against hearing the appeal of the Hollywood studios looking to block it, they should finally be able to deliver as soon as this summer . Of course, there’s benefits to having a locally stored copy of I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here , but just in case we forgot to queue up a recording, the power went out or suffered some other manner of catastrophe, we’d still have access to all the Lou Diamond Phillips anyone could ask for, and there’s really no way the highest court in the land could get in the way of that.

We all want the same thing right? The ability to watch any show we want, whenever we want, and wherever we want. Sounds easy, but even in this day and age to achieve this easily isn’t possible. Currently there are a few ways this might happen down the road, and one that looks to be coming our way sooner rather than later is Cablevision’s Network DVR. While a traditional DVR has a hard drive in it to store your shows, the Network DVR wouldn’t. Instead it would stream the content from a centralized data store, like VOD. You’d still have to pre-schedule your recordings and presumably you’d still have a set limit, but ordering DVR service wouldn’t require a new box and best of all, you should have access to all the same content in any room of the house. This has been in the making for a long time now — three years actually — but Hollywood has been tying it up in court . Luckily the courts have been on Cablevision’s side , but it does appear that the consumer may still get the shaft. That’s because it seems there’s a chance that the Network DVR won’t let you fast forward through commercials, which would obviously make it a show stopper for most.
