Dish Network this week chalked up another legal victory for its Hopper DVR service. An appeals court rejected Fox’s bid to disallow some features in the Hopper platform, namely the place-shifting capabilities of Dish Anywhere and Hopper Transfers. Dish Anywhere gives Hopper customers the option to view content remotely from Internet-connected devices like tablets, smartphones and computers. Hopper Transfers lets iPad users move or copy some Hopper recordings to their device, eliminating the need for an Internet connection to view the content.
