Satellite television company Dish Network Corp(DISH.O) can go ahead with its $320 million purchase of Blockbuster Inc(BLOAQ.PK), a bankruptcy judge ruled on Thursday. Judge Burton Lifland's approval gives Dish, led by billionaire Charlie Ergen, control of the one-time video rental leader's 1,700 stores -- a new way to market Dish's services. Dish put in the winning bid for Blockbuster at an auction earlier this week at U.S. bankruptcy court in Manhattan.
