EDMONTON -- An Edmonton entertainment company has lost its initial bid to block the sale of certain TV set-top boxes by four major retailers. Allarco Entertainment, who owns and operates Super Channel Entertainment Network, was seeking to stop the sale of those boxes. It also alleged that staff at four major retailers -- Staples, Best Buy, London Drugs and Canada Computers -- were encouraging customers to use the boxes to access pirated programming. But in an April 30 ruling, Alberta Court of Queen's Bench Justice Michael Lema rejected that argument, saying Allarco hadn't proven its business had been impacted because of the boxes and that the devices weren't necessarily illegal.
