Full 9th Sends Ad-Skipping Back to Trial

Fox has lost its attempt to get an en banc hearing in front of the 9th Circuit for its claims against Dish's ad-skipping services such as AutoHop. Dish, the DVR company that provides this service, isn't out of the woods yet as the case now proceeds to trial. But Fox appears to be playing a losing hand as it's going in front of a judge that not only denied its request for an injunction (the matter before the 9th) but who has apparently expressed reservations that Fox will be able to make its case at all.
