One of the main surprises of Google's
Fiber announcement in Kansas City last week was that the company also plans to provide its own TV service to the residents of its 'fiberhoods.' There are some issues with Google's Fiber TV service, including the fact that it seems to be missing
quite a bit of content, but it's definitely looking to be a very competitive offering. To make all of this work, however, Google apparently needed to license a number of patents. As digital entertainment technology provider
Rovi announced today, Google has signed a multi-year licensing agreement with the company that provides Google with a license to Rovi's "interactive program guide patent portfolio for set-top boxes, as well as online and mobile platforms."
