Murdoch accomplished his goal at DirecTV; the company now exclusively uses News Corp's software platform to deliver its TV services, and that is unlikely to change anytime soon.
DirecTV has used News Corp. owned NDS for software since they installed their first receiver. I doubt News Corp had to buy part of DirecTV to secure that deal.
