the march 2-8th issue of the sf bay guardian reported today that after july 1 the fcc will make it illegal to record your favorite tv show and burn it to dvd, even for your own persoanl use.

Im getting tired of this shit.

pick it up if you can.

I don't see how the fcc can do anything about that. That has more to do with copyright laws.

from what I read in the article, the Fcc is going to add a signal to the programing, making it basically unreadable if tried to burn to dvd.
Ill see if I can find the article....

i know, fuck the FCC... but i'm prety sure theres going to be illegal hardware that would bypass the flag.

now i'm builting a DVR to work with the anology signal, and i'm not sweating about not recording HDTV in the future
