And tell your banker before she gets too aroused by the new digital TV to
enjoy it while she can. Part of the "magic" of the new TV system is that it
will be restrictive and she will probably soon discover that she may not be
able to record her favorite soap operas or Superbowl games. One of the
reasons for cramming this system down our throats is to accomplish the same
thing that Bill Gates did with Microsoft software.

GL, RIP TV viewers.

Already that way on a lot of stuff.. but of course there are workarounds.
Anything the system can design some nerd can get around. Remember when they
thought they had a foolproof way to copy protect CD's? Remember when they
forced Radio Shack to discontinue the WORM CD recorder? Then they keep
thinking they have DVD's and Blu-Ray copy protected... it's an interesting
war to watch..

The revolution will be decrypted!
