After some crazy decisions in the past, it looks like the US Court of Appeals has sided with consumers! It's a great day for all concerned.

good show.

It's funny how a communications regulatory board tries to control something that doesn't communicate.

great news.

but this got me thinking, we just recently got a digital set-top-box, and we've been having trouble recording off of it with the VCR - it's like it has that annoying copy protection thingy that DVD players have (so you can't copy them to VCR).

[edit: nm, seems the vcr has a thirst for a NTSC signal instead of PAL.]
