Hollywood studios and TV networks are asking a federal court to stop a video recording service that Cablevision Systems planned to start testing next month. Instead of recording on a hard drive in the home, the cable company would record the viewers' chosen shows on a central computer, then allow viewers to watch them later. The companies sued Cablevision in U.S. District Court in New York on Wednesday, saying the service, known as a "network DVR," violated the companies' copyrights.
