Issuer's information/explanatory remarks concerning this ad-hoc-announcement:
RTL loses bid to bar ad blocker Tivion
RTL Television, Germany's biggest commercial broadcaster, lost the final appeal
Friday in its attempt to keep Telecontrol Consumer Electronics' Tivion ad
blocker off the market. In Europe's version of the debate over the impact of
digital video recorders, Germany's highest court decided that Tivion Media
Center was nothing more than an automated extension of a TV's remote control and
not an illegal jamming transmitter, as RTL's lawyers had argued. Tivion's ad
blocker either automatically switches away (realtime) to a channel not showing
commercials or pops up with a screen indicating which channels have programming
running and lets the viewer decide whether to zap away. It can then zap back to
the original channel as soon as the commercials are over or can generate hard
disc recordings or video tape recordings without commercials.
