Plucking signals straight out of the air and onto a hard drive isn't hard with multiple DVB-T & DVB-S cards. Hardware prices are only coming down, and building a box with 2 * 500GB drives 6 DVB-T and one DVB-S tuners (with room for expansion) etc. won't be as expensive or difficult in a couple of years. >Yes. but it's a different kind, and can you really blame the man for not wanting to call it DRM? just look how >many posts on t'internet it results in ;) Not calling it DRM is misleading at best. Imagine the Daily Mail headline (assuming there's anyone at the daily mail who understands anything more than the words: house, prices & immigration): "BBC online chief caught lying!"
