One of the things that doesn't get enough understanding in the DRM and BF debates is that you can indeed, with work, in officially blessed systems, implement any feature that has already been thought of, if you want it enough. With complex hoops, keys can be granted to the machines in your house to let them read the encrypted recordings the flag effectively mandates. The problem is that there's often no way to implement new features that weren't thought of when the DRM was designed. Innovation stops. That's why Myth and the other systems are important. Anybody can come in with a new idea.
