Lo.

Nope, a mixture Star wars,the matrix and the movie Brazil,all rounded up with the thread that was locked last night for alleged breaking of the rules,although no rules had come within 693 feet of being bent let alone breaking.

258517 2004-08-05 12:26:00 That's not cloud - that's all you get when the sky has been stolen - dust (wet dust in this case)

258520 2004-08-06 05:43:00 He's within his rights buying sky, and recording it to DVD.

He hires the Sky decoder, and gets Sky legally.
He hooks it up to his computer.
He then proceeds to burn some programs to DVD for personal use.

I personally don't see the problem there. If he sells the DVDs then there's a problem, and yes it's illegal. But it's alright if he records programs he payed to view to the new technology isn't it?
