Are you perhaps talking about "BPL" .. Broadband over Power Lines? The FCC is about to implement lower part 15 interference standards to accomodate this piece of money gouging crap.

Well, I did a search on the Senate website ( http://www.senate.gov ) and
that bill is from the 107th session.  We're in the 108th session now.  Also,
a search of the "Public and Private Laws, 107th Congress" (
http://www.gpoaccess.gov/plaws/search.html )makes no mention of the phrase
"Consumer Broadband and Digital Television Promotion Act," three mentions of
the number "2048" ( public law numbers 107-179, 107-288, and 107-110, none
of which have anything to do with digital anything), and no mention of the
phrase "S. 2048."  So I guess that it didn't pass.

if this has been posted already, i apologize.  i'm so behind with all the
mail
from the group, it's overwhelming at times.  anyway, this is very important
to everyone.  i'm not having the government control what i do with my
computer.  guess it's time to buy a DVD drive before all this stuff goes
into
effect, not that my intent is to do anything illegial or do any copyright
violations with it, but i want to be able to do what i want to do when i
want
to do it with my computer.
